Yeah it does seem to have dried up completey. I started my current contract about 6 weeks ago and it aint going well due to the project being delayed by another 3 months. I am a Server engineer so not a particulrly specialised area. I'm looking around every day and the amount of contracts on Jobserver have dropped dramtically from about 6 a day I could apply for to 1 or 0!!!

I'm currently resorting o looking at permanent jobs jsut to keep y skills fresh for the nex couple of years - I reckon it could be like this for at least the foreseeable future. I hope not though.
