Hi All

Our HR Manager has asked if someone in Melbourne might be able to advise
what the IT Market for staff is like, and/ or recommend an IT Recruitment
Agency she may be able to talk to.

The reason for the query is a contact of hers has just graduated in computer
studies and wants to come and work in Melbourne. He has specialised in C++ &
Java and seems to have done well, although he has limited experience to
date.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can offer suggestions.

John

It all depends on the IT skills. If you have Java or dot net, should not be
a problem. It is much tougher in the IT market now. Register on-line with an
agency eg www.seek.com.au At least you will get an idea of available jobs. I
have not had paid work in Melbourne for a long time!

Hi Peter

Thanks for that. I will advise accordingly. My feeling really is he is
better to get some experience in his home town first.

Regards

John

ps Feel sorry for you!! Do you just do unpaid work?
