My client was looking for Java wonks, and made several offers, but in each case the person turned down the offer the day before they were due to start as they had had an interview the day before, and an offer later in the day which they tool.

From about 50 roles I get a technical test, which I can't answer anyway.put some of those my way, BB, there's a good lad

Depends what role you are looking for. I hear there are tons of Santa jobs going at the moment but these tend to drop off towards the new year.
