Answering my own question here really.
I have a benchmark test that I use; I go into Jobserve & do a search for C# contracts. Pre 2008, I'd get around 900 results. At the height of the slump, it got down to just under 300. Did a search yesterday & I got 390 matches
.
Looks pretty bad in other words. Just wondering if this is bearing out in the real world. Any .netters out there struggling to find work?
I only ask because my current contract ends in April. They may extend but it has turned into a support role where I'm spending all my time doing data fixes on a live system. As much fun as poking needles in your eyes and I want out.
