Congratulations!Originally posted by Dante View PostAfter 4 weeks out of work - secured a gig in the smoke today.
I think things are picking up - loads of Defence / Public Sector work coming up. Had 3 interviews this week (albeit with one being a total waste of time due to misleading agent).
Only downer is there is only budget approval til the end of the financial year, (so 6 weeks) but i guess that's going to start happening in these there times.
Keep my place will ya bench-wenches? I'll be right back!
