Really should have got the rates sorted before going live:

And to think there was a willing, able, free, vocal and very critical gang if potential testers, all sitting here, waiting for such an opportunity to pull something to bits...

Hindsight's great, innit?

Thanks for taking the time to look at the site all. A bit of an explanation is in order

I know the rates are way out in places at present and we are working on normalising data and stripping out jobs where there obvious wayward data. This will bring the salaries down to a realistic level.

As Iron Condor pointed out, the old site is still available and will be maintained here:
http://old.jobstats.co.uk/

Although this will only be updated monthly.

The new site is updated every few days now and with all the data in a database we are working on new and fun ways of showing the data so if you have any reports that you would like to see then let me know via PM or the contact form on the site.

Let me know what you liked about the old site, if you prefer it, and let me know what we can incorporate from here into the new one.

This is still very much a work in progress and all feedback is good for us so happy be slated as much as you like ) Just want to get Google in there are spidering all the new content so that we can try and generate some good traffic to the site.

Thanks all for your feedback so far.

If he gets paid there that will single handely double up contract rates on site to indicate start of "recovery"...

'king 'ell !!!!!!!

Just looked at the chart on the first page. The current situation is well below the bottom of the 2003 period.

I just wonder how the work permit aprovals are going. There is a skills shortage after all; it is so difficult to find staff.
