        No indirect, that's why I use agencies to do all the difficult work for me.

          Yes as long as I get the rate I want, I would be looking at the same rate going direct or indirect, so whatever the agent puts on top of that I don't care.

              Job spiders that crawl end clients jobs pages looking for jobs, how very 2005. As you can imagine we've used them, and the fact we no longer do probably tells you how effective they are.

              There is a product coming on to the market which I think might work, but you'll be paying a hell of a lot more than £7.99

                Would that be taking the time and effort to build up your network so that you can source direct contracts , I'm into my 4th agent free year

                    If you report them to Nominet, the website will be told to release the contact details or it will be taken down. Only non-trading individuals can hide their details
