But even in Europe, as you say a lot of vacancies are being filled internally. Half my contracts have been with or via IBM, and IBM everywhere is now "internal only" except in special cases (I have heard of such cases but not managed to become one).
Thanks for the analysis. BTW I have since February only had 2 prospects get me as far as talking to anyone farther down the line than my own pimp: both in France. I wonder if the French's famous distaste for people who don't speak fluent French may turn out to be my saviour? Subcontinentals are not making big inroads there.
How long can I hold out? About another month in good shape; or until about the end of the year but by then I really need a contract to catch up again.
