New IT Job coming soon.

Today is my last day at the contract job I am at now. Unfortunately I did not get a spot in Georgia like I had planned. Internally a employee was going to be something else, but then took the last Desk job. I have the emails and have corresponded with HR on the company's side... I am not going to give up on going to Georgia, the time just is not right... (Im a believer in if it is meant to be it will happen). So as of next week I will be back on the job market.

Can any of you all offer any tips to get off the market quickly? I know I am going to update my resume, add and change my references, and add what I did at this job to it. I just do not want to leave this job then go 6 months without a main job (it has happened before).

Honestly I am a bit worried because my SO does not work... So everything is on me to make the money, and keep a roof over our heads etc... I know I can do it!!

Can you contact the recruiter who set you up with this contract to see if there is another?

Already did that and got no reply.

You should just recruiter their office. Send tons of unsolicited email to the people who work there and ask if they have any exciting or challenging opportunities in your area.

Honestly I just got done sending a mass email and CCied a bunch of people.... I like the organization and how its run and I really wont hate to leave them...

That's a good idea! I was actually kidding, but you seem like you did it in a constructive way!

No reply yet, but I know I will get a reply from someone.
I emailed the guy that recruited me for the contract and his manager.... and asked if they had another contract available that I was a good fit for... and please let me know about anything they have.
