Agency help

RevTony:
Looking at various threads, some suggest registering with several agencies (to maximise the chances of work) - but others say an agency will not allow you to work for anyone else whilst you’re on their books.

Who’s right?

Unless you…

Sign a contract specifically stating that you cannot undertake work for any other agency then, world is your oyster. I’ve worked for 4 different agencies in one week. Sometimes the same job was for different agencies. As long as the tax man is happy at the end of the year, it’s no biggy.
I found that over time, because I was working for one or two agencies, the other ones just stopped calling with work.
A really good agency that keeps you going and pays you well is worth more than the hassle of the others.
