Many years ago (perhaps 10 or even 14 years ago) I sent my resume to a personnel agency, but they didn't ever find me a job. Late last year they rang up on a Thursday, so I went for the interview on Friday and started on the Monday. Yes, they were desperate.
Moral: Spread your resume far and wide. You'll go onto various databases, and when staff leave those agencies they'll often take the db with them, so you're details will spread virus-like.
