      Can you give us your hiring manager name, email, mobile number and department? Do you know if they are looking for other contractors?
      What was your interview like, what kind of questions do they ask?

        no

        I shall get my own mates in first

        The interview wasn't a grilling but there was a technical test which, while not especially tough was very pushed for time

          Are you new to contracting? I was taking the pi$$ with the questions above, they are the sort of questions agents would use on gullible applicants like yourself....

          If I were you I'd delete all the information you have given here, the IT contracting world is small and anyone can trace you to this post !!

            Or, alternatively, wear a burkha like Sandy to disguise yourself.

              No, I didn't think you were really serious - even if you were an agent fishing, I didn't think you'd have that many posts without being spotted and booted out.

              I haven't said anything that I shouldn't have but I do take what you said under advisement.

                Congrats SoupDragon, now you can afford one of those bargain new build Ipswich marina-side flats that have been advertised in London papers for the last year.

                  The Master works here as well you know. He'll be after your autograph - should be good for an extension and a ride in his Tardis.

                  He's been away for a bit lately though. Project planning.

                    Yah, that place had character but they knocked down the olde buildings and now it looks like downtown dubai with all its cranes...

                      Soup Dragon, we don't boot agents out here.

                      Keep your friends close, keep your enemies even closer...
