So had a new one today.
Applied for a contract position in London and get a call back from the agent. Virtually the first thing he asks is "Where do you live?".
When I queried the rationale for that he claimed that the client isn't prepared to look at anybody whose commute is over an hour which I found hilarious having previously lived in SE London and worked at Heathrow. Apparently the client location is a 20 minute walk from the nearest station although you will be surprised to hear that he refused to confirm who the client was.
Anybody else ever encountered this? Smells of bulltulip to me but feel free to comment...
