I threw my hat into the ring on a contract.

6 month right to hire.....

Currently in year 2 of a FTE position. Pay is a little more, benny's are crap. But the work effort is killing me. I feel like I am experiencing death by a thousand cuts......

Been relegated to QA and report development. Moving requirements, not much development in regards to skills / tools. I thought I would be able to pain through it but nope not going to happen.

This new position is an data integration role, mainly ETL and troubleshooting. Still going through the interview process so......

    Best of luck to you. I'm putting my feelers out there as well, but a lil wilder for the most part since it's in another country.

    I'm not sure, I don't think so.

    All I know is they use SSIS for data movement and they want someone strong in SQL. This could be a good fit.

    @UNIX Exactly. Time to get some SSIS going. Trying to get back some skills in SSIS and SSAS, that should put me in a pretty good spot.
