Nicoletta - If you are for real, then I applaud you. If you're not, then I like your style
Nothing you have written will be news for anyone that has an ounce of nonce, however I bet you're getting a nice warm feeling inside getting some payback
.
Generally speaking ROV'ers are easy prey. Not terribly good at negotiating or Solidarity for example. The newbies so desperate, it's easy pickings.
It's unfortunate, but almost all emails now that come from agencies are now filtered directly to my SPAM box. You know the score, ''We want your CV and expected day rate''...you what...since when?
It's supposed to be; You advertise legit job, I show an interest, we work out a deal, you get my credentials, I then apply...job, jobbed.
The root cause is the plethora of apparent teenage IQ'd, baby faced pratts that have not scoobie how to manage people or indeed a company. Notice I didn't mention IV Offshore, but if the cap fits.
As an ROV'er I love trawling through LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter looking at some of these neds.
Must admit, though there's some pretty looking gals out there as recruiters...I won't mention names or their plastic surgeons, but they are doing all right mate
I won't mention either about any of lovely looking gals I met at the trade shows from in-depth, IV, FET or UKPS !
How can I resist, but send in a fake CV
and rub my details fast on the phone.
What can you do? Ride it out, it's just a phase.
If only we had an ROV UOnion, it all could have been a whole lot simpler!
P.S
How on earth you come to that conclusion? Scaremongery over the price of oil perhaps, or because a few companies pull the plug?
That's normal economics and basic waste management. Don't interpret that as a slowdown. You only have to read some publications to see just how buoyant the market really is.

But I think 2015 is going to be very slow year with few Rov requirements and the requirements that are there most of it will be staff and not free lance. |
