I joined the Computer Futures agency in August 2000, I was looking for a way forward on my chosen career path. All it took was one call to their one of their London offices and the search was on. After they had received my CV they fixed me up with 3 Interviews spread throughout the London area, I had two interviews in the Isle of Dogs. As I hadn't been to London before I did't have much of an idea of where I was going or how to get there, Computer ...
...interview they asked if I could ring back to give them a feel on how I thought the interview had gone Computer Futures then guided me on to the next interview.

Anyone who has searched for jobs through online recruitment agencies must recognise the process. They advertise a vacancy, you send your CV and covering letter, and 90% of the times you get no response at all.

Unfortunetly in 2006 thing are very different. They constantly advertise non-existant jobs, they don't return e-mails or calls for these jobs. When I complained that I never received detailed information about these jobs, I got an e-mail back saying ...
...me if you want to know more, they then proceeded to e-mail me the same job several times in one day. Also I called about one job, mentioned I had an interview somewhere and mysteriously this was possibly the same job, but he wouldn't tell me who the job was with to confirm, he wanted me to tell him. They don't care about the client these days now that the second .com boom is mild and they have to actually work for their money. Shame. ... Read review
