| Re: Rise, recruitment firm Ive worked for a few agencies before that i wont name (to save them embarrassment). They can be good as they are the ones that do all the fucking about to get you the job but always bear in mind...they take a chunk of your pay. I worked in Motorollup through an agency......The full timers in there got £13 an hour......we got £4.50. I asked about this and it was dismissed as 'agency fees'. Thats nearly a fucking tenner an hour and there was close to 100 agency staff in there at the time...all working 12 hour shifts. that worked out about 12 grand a DAY those fucks were raking in and that was just from that one site.
They are good at getting you work though, just sometimes nothing like what you are after. I always did SMT Debug and Repair.......a certain(cretin more like) agency in Motherwell kept phoning me and offering me jobs in sandwich factorys and in warehouses. When i asked why they kept doing this they told me it was because i said that was the kind of work i was looking for.....after having 8 years in debug and repair im sure i really wanna make somecunts sandwiches.
Remember this too....they can get bodies left right and centre, especially nowadays, so sometimes you get messed right about. |
