    Hi!

    Does anyone know/have a handy list (roughly) of firms that recruit directly through TC applications or those that prefer to recruit directly via TC?

    This question has been asked so often over the last few weeks that I actually might just make the list myself when I have some spare time (if it doesn't exist already)
