It's all kicking off...

I haven't just been sitting around the house playing games and growing a beard (although there has been some of that....) and have been making an effort to get some work.

I've just come back from an interview that sounded quite promising... definitely the kind of work that I would like to be doing but it's not going to be in a team environment which is a bit of a pity. There is the option of taking it on as a permanent position or just as a contract as work needs to be farmed out.

I've also got an unconfirmed interview with someone else tomorrow for a eight week contract starting on Monday (someone's left things until the last minute) and which would be in my area. I'll find out about that one later.

Hmmm... Perhaps I should stick to contracting for a while. It pays better and if the work is available then it's a lot more varied and interesting than doing different flavours of the same sort of thing in permanent employment.

I get the feeling things are picking up in the IT market.
