Happy Summer!

Happy Summer!

Finally – another “edition” of the blogletter. What started out as something that was going to be a twice-a-month project has slowly regressed to a monthly post, then a every-other-month posting, and now it’s been three months, so more of a “quarterly” newsletter I guess. I am really hoping to post more in the weeks to come.

One of the biggest reasons it’s been so tough to keep this updated is that I am recruiting for two practices now and that has certainly kept me busy. I would guess I probably receive well over 150 contacts on a day-to-day basis between emails and phone calls – still, I’m excited to be in a position where I can help build both our PM/BA AND our Java practices and continue to be committed to helping create “the perfect fit” between candidates and the positions we see. I’m hopeful the work will pay off when the market does turn around. My #1 goal is to be the best possible resource I can be to the people I work with, and it frustrates me to no end when I don’t meet that goal. I promise that I will continue to work my tail off!

On that note, I would like to remind everyone about Tech-Pro’s $1000 referral bonus – as we are definitely on the lookout for the best and the brightest when it comes to java consultants! Where we’ve struggled a little is finding the “intermediate-to-senior” level developers – by that I mean those who have between 5-9 years of experience developing in Java. Of course, we’re on the lookout for ANY talented developer in any technology -- that just happens to be a particular segment we could use help with. As always, please drop me a line if you know of someone on the lookout for a new role, and I will ensure that you are made eligible for the $1000 bonus if we place that person on an engagement of 90 days or more!
