Two weeks? I've been on the bench roughly 12 times as long and I'm a bloody good PM...

Too few jobs, too many applicants and too many inept recruiters.

I thought it might be very early days and quite a long haul!

**original PM** · 14 August 2009, 11:59

No jobs at all or no jobs at the rate you want?

**Hawkeye** · 14 August 2009, 12:00

Am completely flexible on the rate to be honest.

Interesting - I seem to be able to find 2 or 3 a day which I would be suitable for - up in North West though.

I am not actually looking just have not turned off whichever job site keeps sending me e-mails.

Have mainly focused around London, commuting distance outside of London and anywhere in easy commuting distance of Sheffield (about an hour and a half each way).

Plenty out there, although most "PM" roles are not actually PM at all, more technical project delivery stuff. Problem is getting your name down for one...

Noticed the banking sector market being flooded but they all request Investment Banking experience (think there is a post about this on the forum). Unfortunately I have no financial experience or am sure it would be a breeze
