Posted By Brian I find it interesting how many applicants have failed to carry out Peter's instruction: "For further information or to submit an application please contact peter.orridge@ntlworld.com." Personally I would employ none of them. They demonstrate an inability to understand written communication and/or carry out a simple instruction. If employed, they will no doubt end up giving prospective clients what THEY perceive the client wants rather than what the THE client really needs! Brian

Posted By Harry It's difficult to see how anybody could disagree with Brian - the ability to follow simple instructions is surely the basis of any working relationship. In any case if people are so careless with their own information would they be any better with the client's. Harry

Posted By Harry And there's me thinking that some of the 'applicants' might take positive note for the future when applying for other vacancies - silly me! Suitably chastened Harry
