So, I've had a few agents call this week, the usual fishing calls etc, but a few for actual, real roles. What I want to know, is when an agent says "this is the rate, we always make this clear to the candidate beforehand, as if they want more we'll have to go back to client to ask for more", is this true or utter bull tulip?
Do they really go to the client to ask for more or do they say that to put you off, whilst pocketing a nice tidy margin sum?
I guess the negotiation would come if an offer comes through, so how hard does one negotiate, when it was made clear that the rate was what is was at the start? Is this normal?
