Diana,
That sounds way too high for Scotland, although the odd contract like that
does appear from time to time. There was a couple of contracts like that
where I live (Newcastle Upon Tyne,about 110 miles south of Edinburgh) but
they were for experienced Oracle Apps DBAs. To make that sort of cash, I
think you may have to be contracting in London.
I think the norm regionally is anywhere between 45-75 an hour, but I would
like to hear from any other UK based people if I've got that wrong.
I am unsure as to how easy it is for foreign nationals to get employment
over here although there do seem to be a fair few. I certainly don't think
we are as strict as the U.S for example. I quite fancied a stint over there
(or Canada - Vancouver to be precise) but keep getting put off by the Green
Card thing and the fact that I am not University educated. Worked my way up
from junior programmer in Cobol etc etc etc....
Anyway, there are no spare jobs in the UK AT ALL.....................:-)
Lee (Oracle DBA in the UK who likes the apparent shortage as I am always
getting calls to "improve my situation" !!).

My husband is Scottish, and he heard from a Scottish pal of his that top
Oracle consultants can earn up to ?1000 a day in Edinburgh! Made me want
to up and go, I'll tell you...then again, having a husband with a British
passport means I can work without too many problems.

Hi fellows,
Sorry for the offtopic but I had been in UK last week and my friends from
there told me that there is a shortage of IT professionals and , that if
you really got the skills , is very easy to migrate and find a job. But
none of my friends are IT professionals and I donīt know how much they know
from this market.
So I wish to know , if possible , from the IT professionals working in UK
if it is really easy to find a job and migrate ? What are the governamental
restrictions ? How much we can earn in a year of work ? Where I can find
more information about immigration to UK ?
TIA,
Antonio Belloni
