    I doubt it, especially as the client is paying a decent rate. They have spent the past few weeks looking for someone with the exact skillset, but were not able to. I have similar experience, but by no means experienced with the product they are using.

    He may not be racist. He's just infatuated with Bob.

    If you can't compete then find a niche that very few can exploit. Failing that, get the hell out of Dodge.

Still, it's been like this for years for me - always taken me months to find a new role - so I'm pretty used to it by now.

    Don't worry, you'll land a role eventually. In the interim, just make sure you've kept a decent warchest!
    Like Nicola Murray in The Thick of it?
