How are other fields?

Testing seems to be booming at the moment, in which area of the country are you looking and for what type of testing work as it's a broad area?

Interesting. You can PM me details and I will get them to get in touch. You can make your mind up for yourself but I'd wager they're very suited.

"Market" to me suggests contracting market. The OP, a tester as his/her post suggests, is out of work and just wants to get an idea as to how other folk are faring, in testing or otherwise. Nothing wrong with that and threads of this ilk ordinarily foster debate across sectors and roles.
