For those of you that are freelancers/contractors, I will be putting up developers for hire section on cfdeveloper where all members can advertise their skills and availability to potential clients.   -----Original Message----- From: Simon Horwith [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 26 May 2004 22:11 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [ cf-dev ] The chicken or the egg I've found that it's very difficult for om[anies in the UK to get good CF help.  By the way - if I were going to hone my skills in a market other than CF it wouldn't be .NET, it'd be JAVA. ~Simon Simon Horwith CTO, eTRILOGY ltd.

My recent experience has shown me an alternative viewpoint. My current contract is for an employer who is in the midst of making the decision to move from CF to .NET and his main reason is that he cant get any Coldfusion programmers. There is a virtual glut of asp programmers leaving University and a great source of the valuable resource he needs. So which came first, the lack of jobs or the lack of programmers?   Ellis C Wood BSc Ellwood Web Solutions   T: 01623 459973 E: [EMAIL PROTECTED] W: http://www.ellwoodwebsolutions.co.uk   -- These lists are syncronised with the CFDeveloper forum at http://forum.cfdeveloper.co.uk/ Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/dev%40lists.cfdeveloper.co.uk/ CFDeveloper Sponsors and contributors:- *Hosting and support provided by CFMXhosting.co.uk* :: *ActivePDF provided by activepdf.com* *Forums provided by fusetalk.com* :: *ProWorkFlow provided by proworkflow.com* *Tutorials provided by helmguru.com* :: *Lists hosted by gradwell.com* To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
