Trouble with Money Saving Expert is that besides the motto (which I fully agree with) there's not much else. The tips require too much time for the amount of money they save. One of their staff was...

Welcome to the world of start-up English, where things are never quite what they seem.

That'll be Hindi on top of English, I doubt they're looking for people who don't speak English.

Thank your lucky stars your client isn't using Ariba for paying suppliers, absolute bag o tulipe using their platform.

Can't believe no one picked up some pun for the urine tests for water, this place is going downhill!

I think that you've got a lot of positives on your side, if I were the FD I wouldn't want to lose you for a couple of k. But like ladymuck says you've got to find what their best price is.

I've seen more posts recently in LinkedIn from recruitment consultants being taken on / getting back into recruitment. Make of that what you will.

You can sleep when you're dead; until then, let's code!

Current gig is WFH and so for the interview I wore a blue shirt no tie. I did think about this as everybody had just gone into lockdown a few weeks previously. I asked a friend who was WFH what...

Well, the word on the street is that the contract market is undergoing a few changes.

Well played sah! Good for you, I would have taken the interview and hoped the desperation didn't show too much.

That's fine, there's plenty of other roles out there I expect.

Plus fairly sure he could have been paying himself more without paying tax but my accountant deals with all that.

Thanks for getting back, it'd be interesting to know what happened.

You could try talking with them and using your gut instinct.

Can't you just set-up a VPN for this?

Sounds trite but yoga is really useful as well.

Hi all,

What about a contract with a consultancy where it's not the consultancy that is the interesting bit but the end client of the consultancy?

Thanks mate much appreciated. Are you still in Whinmoor(?) or did you manage to sell the place? Be good once this covid-19 nonsense has finished and we have a social.

Hi Si,

Yes, I'm on it I applied for that role, didn't get it, did get some feedback (which gave a some pointers) and then for some reason got another email for DOS about this role out of the blue...

In the questions that are asked about each offer is inevitably the IR35 status. A lot of them that I saw had replies saying that the role was outside.

They don't know about tech but they are people persons and they'll be good to judge whether people seem comfortable talking about a tech subject. So they won't understand what you're talking about...

My brother went to one of these and the trouble was that people only go as they want to sell their wares, there aren't any real buyers and it smacked of desperation.

Really? An agency has walked somebody off site for this? I'm aware that their business model is based on smoke and mirrors but they'd remove a fee-earner for them and then oblige the client to go...
