If you talk to an independent recruiter, but then the hiring agency recruiter reaches out, do you let the independent recruiter know?

You mean like, independent recruiter sent your book to XZY Agency, and then later XZY Agency directly reaches out?

I’ve been in that situation and the independent recruiter gets mad about it. In my case, it was the agency reaching out like 7-8 months after the independent recruiter - didn’t matter. Recruiter thinks they own you, and your relationship with the agency.

The recruiter found out somehow. Maybe the agency was like “Hey, isn’t this the guy you sent us?” So I didn’t do anything except listen to the recruiter give me grief. They just wanted their cut in case I got hired - which I didn’t.

Should I leave my first permanent job as a team leader of 4 DPs in a FMCG business (only been there for 4 months) to join a huge Tech business for a 12months contract?

They offer me 60% more money than my permanent role. Circa 2000 dollars every month in my pocket

However, I am worried if I accept the tech role and I do not become permanent I will be looking again for a job in 12-24 months and my CV won't be showing a managerial position. Won't be showing any progress.

Wanted to highlight Prudential Financial’s hiring practices. They rescinded my offer once I attempted to negotiate the salary. The official reason given was that I didn’t “sound excited enough”.
