I thought you were properly head hunted
It appears you simply bumped into the MD at some show.

I have it in mind sir, that you are a berk.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

i correct you
we did a demo, the MD asked where we got some media i'd done, i told him i did it that day, he said 'do you want to work in acton?' then my boss went 'don't you headhunt him!' and there was some uneasy laughter. then he handed me his business card...

OK
But cut the waffle in your text.

Say We met at such and such, you gave me your card, I'm interested, how do we proceed?

Good luck still.

In future watch your "being a berk" tendencies.

is berking like belming
but less spazzy and more hugh-grant-ish?

I'm going to be kind here
I'm using the term berk in a mildly offensive modern manner.
You could call your mum a berk and survive.

It is believed that berk is a reduction of the rhyming slang phrase "Berkley Hunt" Which you should not use in reference to your mum.

Ha haaa!
Ouch!

Sorry Pete, that's not head hunting. Aggressively persuing your talents at any cost is. He was just doing what folk with bizznizz cards do. Innit.

ok, so it's not a proper headhunting
but it's definitely a potential in. especially considering he made a point of later explaining to me that they needed a designer top bridge the gap betweeen their current guys and the digital end of things, and this was explained directly to me rather than the other two people there.
gotta be worth a shot, right?
