Recruitment Agencies: Business as Usual

Recruitment Agencies in Luxembourg will plough on just as they have always done.  With eyes and ears firmly shut.

"Yep!" said a Suit who probably has a family.  "We call people and ask them to tell us exactly what's written on their CVs and Cover Letters, then do it again in person - only at greater length.  Throughout this we pretend to understand and make notes. When done we generally go silent, even if the job in mind was actually available in the first place." 

An unsuspecting punter chirped "I strolled into one of those fancily named places thinking they would help.  Did they fuck.  They put me forward for a job that's been doing the rounds for months.  One of the gutsy cunts even said that an €800-a-month pay-cut was great motivation."  

Another candidate told the Splice, "I got the Spanish Inquisition by an agency goon.  They grilled me on the D grade I received for GCSE Latin in 1997, I only did it because I hated Chemistry!  They then put me forward for an IT job I had no chance of getting.  The goon finished by telling me they are proud to be an Investor in People."
