    Thats the gig I was after.

    I was supposed to be starting at a software company on a juicy 12 month contract. Old boys network obviously. My old boss was VP there, hence the reason for jacking my old job. Unfortunetly, they had a cut back and he jacked it the week I was supposed to start.

    Hence, back in the game.

    Don't you just hate it when someone has the "in" skills - bloody business intelligence. "Look at me, I know how to get data out of a database using someone elses product".

    Seems to be a bit around. Little more choosy this time around, more Program Manager, BI Manager. Had a sniffer back on a £650pd, but was wondering if Jobserve is still the No 1 place to look.

    If push comes to shove, I'll pick up a low grade contract like Dim or Sas.

    BTW, for the youngster who posted in, please only comment if you've started puberty.

    Ive had my six weeks off and it's time to get back in the game. Now, in the past I've always used Jobserve to get roles, not bothering about what I get. This time, I fancy

    1) Posting up my CV for perusal by agents
    2) Tracking down management roles

    So is Jobserve the best for this?

    Any other recommendations from the panel?
    I think you might have been about 6 weeks early...

    Things start to warm up after the January sales (as you well know... )

    Don't try selling everyone clearance stock on the first day.

    Don't punch the boss
    Don't tell everyone they are an idiot on the first day
