Somehow this firm of stupid recruitment consultants managed to get hold of my details. After a few phone calls asking if I wanted a job I asked to be removed from their contact database. Still more emails.. Then I asked again and got a very polite reply from a lady who had originally called me, which I thought would be the end of it… Unfortunately not. More emails from them. It would be ok if the emails were a little more carefully phrased or even a little creative, but the tripe they come out with is utter rubbish! 

4th time lucky being removed from their database. What a bunch of chancers.

Dear All

I think we are all feeling the way the market is at the moment – However we still have jobs on Health Care, Education, Rail and today I picked up a job on Aviation – so in short Public Funded projects.

If you are interested in Healthcare, Education, Rail or Aviation projects, then please get in touch, as clients / companies are letting people go what seems to be at a very rapid pace within Housing, residential, mixed use and retail sectors.

I dont believe we need to panic – but if you are feeling the heat and want to secure something else then send me an upto date cv with samples – but you must remember it will be put forward for the above projects.  Obviously if you have relevant sector experience then it would be easier…. 

I hope to hear from you all

Kind regards

Anyway, I’m very happy in my current job! I wonder if their clients know how much they pester people?

Update: So I poked around their website a bit and they even have a recommend a friend section! Woo. Sounds like they’re desperate for work. 

Not sure if this was the kind of service they were suggesting when they wrote this? ..prides our self in offering a very different approach to the common problems faced within the industry

For info. If you want to get a job in architecture through a recruitment consultants – use RIBA Appointments!
