A lousy job market?! For who? You mean for employers, right?
Once every week I am contacted by someone looking to hire a
sysadmin/VOIP/whatever guy.
DrJays.com is looking for experienced and well rounded developers to
initially code perl and later perhaps Python. Can't find them. Pass me
your resume and if you get hired I bet a bonus! :) Unfortunately we are
too small a shop to be able to take the time to take on a newbie and
train them up. We posted what I consider a very worthy ad on
joelonsoftware.com where lots of great programmers hang out. Didn't get
a single reply. And DrJays.com is an awesome place to work! Judging by
the fall off in resumes we have been receiving, as of a year and a half
ago the job market has been on the way up.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics the unemployment rate stands
at 4.5%.
