I haven't posted a new CV anywhere recently but yesterday had 4 phone calls from agents in one hour. It looks like they are ramping up for the new year, all were direct and to the point, no fishing for contacts.

Good to hear about the market picking up though. I personally need to get off the bench ASAP so that's good news for me -
Yep, more than enough justification in those two sentences to make me believe that a market covering every aspect of IT and IT management is picking up as a whole. If only economic forecasting were that easy.Originally posted by BigRed View PostI haven't posted a new CV anywhere recently but yesterday had 4 phone calls from agents in one hour.

I got one agent this week call me about a great role, but before he'd tell me about it he asked for something in return, name of someone hiring, anyone left at your place etc.Originally posted by BigRed View PostI haven't posted a new CV anywhere recently but yesterday had 4 phone calls from agents in one hour.
