Then brand him with a big "V".... either way works for me. Also, waiting for vendors to identify themselves is being a lot more trusting than I would be....
The other choice is allow anyone to represent any vendor that they want. Want to pretend to be a vendor... just mark yourself and claim to be one. That doesn't work. Any why would a vendor need to be identified? We specifically do not have hard lines in ML because it was demonstrated to be a bad idea elsewhere. MSP is a voluntary designation because it means nothing. Vendor is voluntary as well, but requires vetting so that we don't get scammed by people claiming to be one vendor but are actually from a competitor or whatever.

Vendors should all be marked as such. That is my only point. I don't give a half a shit how it gets done.

It's not that easy. Start by defining who is and isn't a vendor. Even that we have never been able to do reliably in any community. Everyone who is a vendor is also an professional. And honestly, Gate21 is not a vendor and does not qualify as they don't provide anything for IT.
Everyone in IT works for a company, therefore would be a vendor. Short of that, we are making movable lines as to what we consider to be a vendor.

We are working to come up with a legal, fair, CYA method of verifying and recognizing representatives of vendors in the community. Once that is in place, all that have requested to be tagged (and then approved), and also those who we have recognized on our own, will be tagged appropriately as "vendors" in their posts.

I don't work for WES, I left to start Gate21. WES does 100,000 evaluations in Canada, as with anyone bound to be a small number of unhappy customers.
Again, for Gate21 there is no recruitment. We're career coaching for those already approved to immigrate to Canada. As for the upfront, I've signed many contracts with consultants which included a fee upon signing along with other points of production. I'll be moving my fee to 50% half way through and 50% upon completion, thanks for the input. I wasn't/am not selling anything here (just wanted to correct the info), again I work with people that are approved to immigrate best of luck if that's your goal.
Time is my most valuable commodity so I won't be able to contribute/correct anymore misinformation on this thread, I'll be back to helping people achieve their career goals.

That sounds a bit more fair. Tell us a little bit about what type of coaching you guys do.

I must have missed something, is WES something that I should recognize?

Hey guys, the feeling was that this one had run its course and it seems that relevant info has been provided. We are going to lock this at least until the main mods have time to review.
