Anyone need software engineers in central scotland?
 

Imminent redundancy forces new job search :)

look on http://www.jobserve.co.uk as there's tons

or use this as an opportunity and start your own software house or become a consultant / contractor. IT job market is DEFINITELY picking up.

arent u the dude that invests in shares and makes a fair bit out of that? if so, u could always do that full-time instead :)

Spread betting is a sideline. Would never do it full time......prefer to keep it as a sideline.

Can't seem to find "tons" on jobserve :(

typing in scotland pulls back 464 jobs posted within the last 7 days

i guess it depends on your speciality tho, and exact location as to whether many/any of them are suitable.

you can register with jobserve so they email you jobs too.

Think people forget how damn big Scotland is and how crap the roads are outside of Glasgow and Edinburgh. Hawick to Wick would not be a nice daily comute :D

To be fair, I narrowed the search to Edinburgh and found 188 jobs - most are in IT though - not my skill - software is my skill.

imlach,

Jees-o, unless I have the memory of a goldfish (it's a possibility) .. you're an ex-Agilent bod. Don't tell me you're looking at redundancy again :eek:

Hmmmm, people (and agencies) always tell me that they are now starting to see lots of jobs come up ... from my experience they are all IT based not engineering which are few and far between.

Also Agilent didn't offer many transferrable (sp?) language skills for a lot of them, there's more VB, database stuff going on than C/real-time.

I'll keep an eye out for you.
Doofus.
