Nothing they do is considered honorable. Literally nothing. They also pretty much have a license to do what the hell they like under government mandate as a lot of things they do are actually pretty much illegal if someone founded a startup to do it today.&lt;p&gt;It says everything about the place when I had my CV put forward by an agent a few years ago for a &amp;quot;high tech position&amp;quot; in the &amp;quot;expanding data sector&amp;quot;. Wouldn&amp;#x27;t reveal who it was to start with due to an NDA. Moment I got told who it was, it was &amp;quot;fuck off&amp;quot;. And you know what I got stick from the agent for actually having some ethics. Clearly it&amp;#x27;s not common these days otherwise outfits like that wouldn&amp;#x27;t have any staff.&lt;p&gt;Then again they seem to groom people without experience or understanding of exactly what they do at university job fairs.&lt;p&gt;I await my bag and tag for criticising them.</text></comment>
