Today for the second time in less than a week they called me up for nothing else other than to try and get me to provide leads / references to be put forward for a non existent role. Although he only wanted public sector references as this was a supposedly pblic sector role .
Persistent little critter he was, wouldn't take no for an answer. Kept me on the phone for twenty minutes discussing the issue. Quite enjoyed getting the opportunity to tell him what I thought of the practice and his agency (in a very polite and professional manner of course)..
Reminds me of the time that I had Syed when he worked for C****** People calling me up with a £600 a day contract as long as I could give him two refs. This was all within the first thirty seconds .
I swear the next time this happens I'm going to give them one of my numbers and tell them where to go in no uncertain terms when I get the inevitable sales call.. Either that or when they call ask them to hold and leave the phone on the table..
Any better suggestions ?
