Default IT Recruitment Agencies.....

Just done a search on the net for some IT Job Agencies and there are fookin hundreds of them! Just curious really to see what the market rates are etc (trying to tempt myself ).

Cheers
Chris

Kev, done 4 yrs 2nd line desktop, 4 yrs in 3rd/projects, front office primarily (arsehole equity traders! ). Both London and abroad.

Been out of it for 8 months so ideally would like something like 2nd line / project non trade floor (private banking/law sector etc). City only not the Docklands - and not for Tulletts!!

Ok Kev cheers find out if you can

Martin - send me your email address and ill send me CV over . To be honest ive only worked for 2 major companies (SocGen and Tulletts), first one i got in through work experience and the second one I was head hunted so never really had to use an agency! (hence not knowing any!)

Cheers
Chris
