Independent Consultant
GBIndependent consultants should rely on other agencies This place is a waste of my time and probably yours as well. It verges on shady, tbh. No human contact: it's all automated messaging. The people who work there know nothing about the projects you bid on - they're just selling your services but could care less if it's you or someone else. No one will answer any questions you have about a project before you "bid". I have applied for numerous projects during the past year and rarely heard back on any of them. Projects are frequently "cancelled by the client" before start. The one project I "won" at Graphite was cancelled after I signed the agreement, on the day it was supposed to start. Left me hanging for 8 weeks pay after I turned down two other projects. Not a penny in compensation. At the same time, Graphite wanted to *sell me* credit services (like a payday loan!), training, and other things. Taking my cash but not paying me for work. There are many other professional firms that treat contractors fairly. Be wary of these people.
