Finding work in these dark times......

Dear All,

Well it looks like the end is coming, well for me anyway. My contract with the Council is being brought to a premature end thanks to budget cuts. It's a shame as the position itself is crucial and a great opportunity. I've learnt so much and worked with some truly talented people.

So my questions to you are. What next? Where do I go and who is recruiting right now in the UK?

The UK's deficit has hit every single one of us without exception. Every person I speak to is tightening their belts and businesses are doing the same. So what does this mean for ICT expenditure? Staffing? who knows all we can do is sit and wait, and brace ourselves of course.

In the meantime, should anyone out there need a talented, passionate and frankly saggy round the middle ICT professional then by all means drop me a line  :o)
