    As has already been said, Darren, you should talk to the recruitment agents. 1. you need a good relationship with a small number of agents so that they will think of you when they get a new role.
    2. they can tell you how the market is and whether you need to broaden your search or just be patient

    How long have you been actively looking this time?
    My main agency contact was just telling me that there was a bad dip in April but it has recovered now. Maybe there is just a time lag you need to rideout.

    In the 5 years I've been contracting the worst time was 2004 but it doesn't seem too bad now except for a few weeks now and then.

      Thanks very much...I have been looking for a month now. I am not depending any particular agency, knocking all door rather..!!

      All my experience is around Telecom side, looks to be a dip around telecom openings now. I did broaden my search by area, but still sticking to Contrcat jobs only. I talked few agencies to get in to Financial domain, but they want prior experience.. !!

      Lets see how things moving in next few weeks.
