    Market seems to be bouyant

    Put my head above the parapit, tentatively just to see what was up and within 300 milliseconds got a telephone call (even though I hadn't given my telephone Nr ), and got a list of about 10 roles.



    Probably not chase them up as I already agreed to a paltry rate rise.

          Depends what role you are looking for. I hear there are tons of Santa jobs going at the moment but these tend to drop off towards the new year.
          Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

          I preferred version 1!

            Hate this time of year.

            I'm one of those unlucky enough to look like Santa.
            Gosh how original some of these jokers are.........

                No probs, but all in London 'm afraid, and I mean it sounds good, but from experience I have to be put forward for about 30 roles before I get feedback from the agent that the client is slightly interested. From about 50 roles I get a technical test, which I can't answer anyway.

                But still......better than last year
                I'm alright Jack

                    My client was looking for Java wonks, and made several offers, but in each case the person turned down the offer the day before they were due to start as they had had an interview the day before, and an offer later in the day which they tool. So I'm trying for a modest rise come the current extension.
