      I'd expect danger money to head that far over the border.
      While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

          But they'd have no chance - look at the huge list of required skills:

          Experienced .NET Framework Developer with relevant technical experience, specifically:
          * C#/ASP.NET
          * An ORM (such as Entity Framework or NHibernate)
          * SQL Server 2008 (including SSIS, SSAS and SSRS)
          * Advanced Javascript in a DHTML environment (preferably jQuery)
          * Unit testing and mocking, preferably with NUnit
          * Continuous Integration, preferably CC.NET
          * Experience of Developing RESTful interfaces
          * Working on a multi-tiered environment and with Visual Studio 2010
          * Experience of working in an agile environment.
          * Experience of migrating and developing large scale databases.
          * Ability to transfer skills/provide on-job training.
          * Able to integrate, communicate and work effectively as part of an established team.

              Mmmmm..........

              Applicants must be eligible to work in the specified location
              Reads to me as we have to advertise the job and say we can't get anyone suitable before giving it to a Bob.

                The ideal candidate will be an all-rounder with in-depth technical knowledge
                Yes. I dare say he would.

                  I was on that in 1986. Plus expenses.

                    I was on that in 1999. However, at that time I had none of the skills listed on the advert.
