I am getting one or two emails a day about java dev roles, when until the last couple of years I've struggled to be considered for such roles outside of interfacing with certain niche software. Most of them are coming from agencies I haven't gone through before (although may have applied) so they must be using well out of date CVs from 2008 or so. Is this just the keyword search gone crazy or are they struggling to fill vacancies? This is definitely quite a new deluge of emails.

Around London yes, but in the provinces ?Socialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the state.

Market is good. I know of places that are refusing to hire contactors but are struggling to get any permies, they will eventually break at somepoint. One in particular can't fill 100 roles.Comment

This sounds like an encouraging new trend.The material prosperity of a nation is not an abiding possession; the deeds of its people are.
