    From the amount of time you spend here one would guess that it wouldn't matter which sector was doing well or badly - none of them wants to hire dear old Shaunbhoy.

    started a topic Get out of Public Sector and into the Financial Sector

    Get out of Public Sector and into the Financial Sector

    A new survey has show that Financial Services is the new boom area for IT Contractors and the Public Sector is a no-no due to Government cutbacks.

    Hope you are all in the right sector - for those that are working.

Working...
