Generally you don't want to work for the companies that demand it either.
- ajeet_dhaliwal 10y agoWhere are you based? I'm in London and it's gotten so bad for me I only apply direct now so I can ask for a specific number that I would like. I no longer take calls or reply to external recruiters because so far they all tell me they won't proceed unless I tell them my precious salary despite myselr having told them what I want to make in the new role. Even if the company is willing to pay what I want they insist on knowing. I just say thanks but no thanks.
- crdoconnor 10y agoLondon also. I'm not a recent graduate though, and I only do contract roles.
- ajeet_dhaliwal 10y agoI'm experienced/senior too but I usually look for permanents so may be that is the why we have been treated differently.
- ionised 10y agoHave any advice on getting started in contracting in the UK? Currently working for a medium-sized company in the NW but open to moving.
