The UK rate has dropped significantly.  You are really looking at something
like £35-£40 per hour (as opposed to £60-£70 ph in the past couple of years.
$500ph is v. reasonable.

At the end of the day these angencies never put a rate since they want to
get as good a person as cheap as possible!

They almost all list "Rate: Market". What is that roughly? Just curious what
it pays to be "employed" nowadays in this kind of field...

Anyone willing to reveal?

Me? I live in the "low cost" country so I charge only(?) around $500 per
day,
as consultant.
