Contractor Market

[BlasterBates]

So folks its renewal time again, so what's going on in Blighty?

Is anyone noticing a slowdown in the contractor market, seems to me to be fine, even though there's been some sackings in London.

What's happening, anyone on the bench in the new year ?

Contract is up at start of January. Chance of extension is probably 50/50. In terms of new opportunities it seems ok-ish at the mo. Usual dipping off of roles due to time of year is coming soon I guess.
