      Definitely picking up. This is week 6 on the bench and this week I've actually had to recharge the phone a few times from all the calls.

      got one definite interview next week from it and two more looking promising for an interview also. Not been asked for any stupid reference details either.

      Also had a call from an agent who has been unable to fill a contract because of the stupid criteria (LOL serves companies right!) so if anyone is a PM in Central London who has done an Office 2007 rollout your a shoe in for that contract!

              Yeah,seen that one on jobserve a while back, cv was sent....nothing
              Which is odd because my backgound is bluechip rollouts, as a PM!
              I've rolled out office 2007 on a few site's and it's p*ss easy, all customised by XML, but because my CV dosen't have office 2007 on it......nothing
              Who has time? Who has time? But then if we do not ever take time, how can we ever have time?

                Maybe I can help with my cut and keep guide to getting a contract.

                Copy the following words in italics and paste them all over the place in your CV;

                Office 2007

                Easy, and it can be replicated for any other software package.
