Another noob question from me
I get agents asking me how much I was/am on at my current permie role which is ending in a week. Does anyone know why they need to know this? I usually ask them and they just say their system or a client system requires them to enter it. I started thinking it was because they want to know what price bracket they need to look at to get someone in at my old job.
From now on I will just say I don't want to share that info since I get loads of time-wasting liars who clearly don't have a role to offer me but still say "I'll send you the spec now", "They want to interview this Friday" so that I will just tell them whatever they want to know. Just had one from Hays, I could tell he was blatantly lying, didn't even provide any details of the role just started asking me loads of questions till I pulled him up and asked if he actually had a job for me and then the BS started...still haven't received the spec.
