Thanks for the links... The only thing I know about scotland is that it's in the south of England. I'm looking for a 1st/2nd Line Support or Helpdesk job 1-3 years experience....

I believe the IT Market bottomed out in August with 30% of IT sector trained people out of work (According to Computing Weekly). Up to November, there has been a small increase in the number of contract jobs available up over 5%, which always precedes the permanant employment market by around 6 months.
Not a happy place to be, the market may grow in the next couple of years.

The number of jobs advertised in the Uk is not really reflecting the true state of the market. Yes there are lots of jobs, but there are also a heap of umemployed skilled certified people out there, all applying for these jobs, maybe 250 applicants per position.
