Observation from Bill's resume. * Last employer The Sycamore Group http://www.thesycamoregroup.com * Under link "Career Opportunities" http://www.thesycamoregroup.com/Career.jsp * Impression "wow look at all those jobs" * Reality "just because people are soliciting for jobs doesn't mean they're hiring" Just getting an employer to be honest about there current status with regard to hiring is difficult. HR people will always tell you they're hiring and companies will send out there junior execs to interview just to give them some practice interviewing people with no intention of hiring you what so ever. Military contractors will be receiving more money but the additional funds received as a result of the "war on terrorism" will be spread out among many governmental departments and although 2 billion here and 2 billion there might seem like a lot of money it is a small percentage of there overall budgets. Yes, Lockheed Martin did receive a 200 billion dollar contract, and yes it is a lot of money but most of it will be going to their operations in Texas. As far as I can tell everyone has gotten the word that big military buck is the place to go and they've been swamped with resumes. -- ========================================================== Zachary C Whitley E-Mail: zachary@whitley.org Web: zachary.whitley.org Public Key: available from public key servers ========================================================== Attachment:
