WFBS, though I've had a few false starters recently, going to all the effort of interviewing and then pulling the plug, but the phone calls are coming in about real live roles.
Am surprised, as this time of year is usually dead.
Good luck, long may it continue, I've just been extended to June 11 so it might be boomed time again by then! (I hope).

You guys seem quite happy to dish it out but it seems that some of you just can't take it back.
I am quite surprised that you need to take it so seriously (inwardly I am delighted). I also did'nt realise that there are so many contractors that are so full of their own self importance. On the back of this I might just increase the margin to more "justifiable" levels.
Actually, for me I've had more calls about seemingly genuine contracts starting in the New Year than I've ever had. After a quiet 2010, things do seem to be improving, at last.
