IT job market seems to be improving

by

Just this week, I’ve had four people email me looking to fill IT related positions, mostly in consulting. Several have remarked that the market is getting tighter, it is harder to find good people now than last year. And I know fewer people looking. Based on what I hear from people, it feels as though the job market (at least in IT) has been steadily improving since December.

If you are looking for a job in the IT field in Denver or Dallas, feel free to email me what you are looking for and I’ll let you know if you are a match for any of these opportunities. And no, I don’t charge a fee, it is just your reward for reading my blog.
