hi i got a question..

if successfully get job through agency, ..then must sign how many contracts?

1 or 2? 1 from employer, 1 from agency?

then i heard usual practise from agencies is that they got a 2 or 3 month so-called bond, in which if you break it, gotta pay penalty of a month's salary for example. so on top of this, then still got the contract from the employer??

pls advise..quite blur

thanks

yes, there will be 2 contracts
one is under the agent, one is the appt letter from the company
both are mutually exclusive

pls read everything carefully (read 3 times, at least, and yes, every phucking word)
anything u are unsure or feel uncomfy, raise IMMEDIATELY
