Rochdale is a good 1.5hrs bus ride on the 464, bit of a long way without any motorbike or car as for North Manchester, I live in Oldham and to get to Middleton can take between 30 as the bus timetable says and 1hr if traffic is bad and bad is the normal state of affairs here.
To be fair agencies sometimes offer a permanent position for the right person thats how i got my current job.
Plus there have been other people that at my place that have got permanent employment through this agency.
JobcentrePlus is a waste of time though but still use them as you never know your luck.
