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.

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

It makes me wonder whether they had any closer match whom they did not offer interview opportunity.

Like Nicola Murray in The Thick of it?Originally posted by nomadd View PostYeah, that's about the same for me. I have a pretty solid up-to-date skillset, but unfortunately suffer from extreme claustrophobia. Once I mention that I need stairs access, the agents and clients simple don't want to know. 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!
