Send it in anyway, IME employers don`t turn away good applicants when

shortlisting.

The recruitment consultant I dealt with at the agency I drove for said

the same. They were given recruitment targets to meet even though there

was sod all work.

That`ll be your average bodyshop agency with the morals of a

lobotomised junkyard dog then. Nothing to see here, move along...



Pretty much every EKS I know has a short (or very short) list of

agencies that they`re willing to do business with because there are so

many bad ones out there.



And from the perspective of someone who is trying to help in hiring a

contractor or two right at this moment, there are an awful lot of

candidates out there whose CVs appear to match someone else`s skill set.



I find it a good indicator as to how many unsolicited calls I get for

decent contracts and the fact that it`s recently picked up suggests

that there are jobs out there, but there are also an awful lot of

people chasing said contracts.

Title: Jaguar 1922 - 2009 - Always a great looking car

The Jaguar Badge

The Jaguar Badge

Founded as the Swallow Sidecar Company in 1922, by two motorcycle enthusiasts, Sir William Lyons and William Walmsley, the SS Jaguar name first appeared on a 2.5 litre saloon in 1935, sports models of which were the SS 90 and SS 100. The Jaguar name was given to the entire company in 1945 when the SS was dropped due to lack of popularity from WWII.

Jaguar made its name in the 1950s with a series of elegantly-styled sports cars and luxury saloons. In 1951 the company leased what would quickly become its principal plant from the Daimler Motor Company (not to be confused with Daimler-Benz), and in 1960 purchased Daimler from its parent company, the Birmingham Small Arms Company (BSA). From the late 1960s, Daimler was used as a brand name for Jaguar’s most luxurious saloons.

Jaguar merged with the British Motor Corporation (BMC), the Austin-Morris combine, to form British Motor Holdings (BMH) in 1966. After merging with Leyland, which had already taken over Rover and Standard Triumph, the resultant company then became the British Leyland Motor Corporation (BLMC) in 1968. Financial difficulties and the publication of the Ryder Report led to effective nationalization in 1975 and the company became British Leyland, Ltd. (later simply BL plc).

In the 1970s the Jaguar and Daimler marques formed part of BL’s specialist car division or Jaguar Rover Triumph Ltd until a restructure in the early 1980s saw most of the BL volume car manufacturing side becoming the Austin Rover Group within which Jaguar was not included. In 1984, Jaguar was floated off as a separate company on the stock market — one of the Thatcher government’s many privatizations.
