Probably the same agency then, and I get the same vibe...however with AI I don't think there's much choice in the US. Last place (where I went directly through the company and didn't have any tax issues) I was in country, trained, and on line before "this agency" got back to me saying "hey, its time" That's when there was a certain fever for the ex-pats, we'll see how this pans out...
Sorry for the semi-hijack of the thread...
