I've got friends in Atlanta, Detroit, san Francisco, new york, and a few
other places; they all had some dismal stories. the industry is suffering a
bit of late. the overall unemployment rate is up in comparison to the last
couple of years.

Florida has always been a weak market compared to rest of the USA. I
remember in NYC, you could go get another job at a lunchtime interview. DC
area has a good job market. Pick up the NY Times or Washington Post. Not
sure on the rest of the country. BTW, the financials job in Miami is at
DelMonte and they have been looking for over a year.

"DBA" jobs listings on ComputerJobs.com for the Florida area have gone from
1572 to 846 over the past 6 months. The job ads you see are repeated each
week and are posted by more than one recruiter for the same job. Contact
with the recruiter results in the " job is filled" or some other lame
excuse. It appears that they are building a resume database incase the
market opens up again. In the past weeks we have been contacted 2 or 3 times
a week by recruiters inquiring "if we have any opening that they can fill?"
I think the market is tight right now and "downsizing" will continue for a
while until the economy picks up. Weekly the papers report another company
in the Atlanta, GA area going through the "size" adjustment.
