    Boooooooomed with statistics!

    Interview today, start Monday. 6 months on the ticket.
    Crap rate and away from home but at least they are springing for the hotel:-)

    Stats, as it has been harder than usual:-
    Started applying Feb 11th
    28 applications on JobServe / Reed
    5 callbacks from agents all saying they'll put CV forward (So probably only 5 real roles out of the 28!!)
    3 callbacks from agents offering a completely different role to that advertised.
    1 telephone interview with client followed by face to face
    1 gig

            Banana!

            If they pay expenses then the rate might be half-decent, depending what they'll let you get away with.

              That is harder? That would be a dream set of stats for me. Last gig I got you could have put a 0 on the end of those and not been far off.

              I think you have done well there so it surely has to be a for that.
