                    Good luck everyone. As someone with no banking experience I hope you all manage to stay in banking, rather than have to look elsewhere, where I may be looking!

                    Suprised some banks are offering permie conversion, unless it's purely the drop in outgoings they're looking at, if they expect they'll be needing contractors for years rather than months. For those wanting to stay in banking it may be a tough decision, knowing that eventually the storms will clear and normal service will resume.

                    Remember folks, stay in banking if you want to stay in banking! It's a lot harder getting back into it if you've had to take public sector work as a stop-gap.

                      At least tell us who she is first, so we can google her at our non-sensitive location.
