Midrange Jobs National Discussion

Hi Everyone

    The issue of out-sourcing is at the heart of all the lack of adequate 
employment
we're all experiencing these days.
    Despite all out protestations, and letters to our congress people, the 
lobbying 
there is very powerful, and those trends continue unabated.
    It really would be preferable, if there was a national limit placed on 
corporations ,
in respect to how much of their computer and administration work can go 
overseas.
   

    Many of the Newsnet groups, and Job agency websites are responded to on a 
very
regular basis, by those same off-shore outfits, continually trying to scoop up 
what
small fragments remain in the market here.

    I am a personnel recruiter, and personally spent four decades in the 
industry. 
    Being a recruiter, and an ex computer professional are not mutually 
exclusive.

    Twenty years in, and just about all the jobs in the market were Big Blue 
related,
    but it's really a rarity today.
    As previous articles to this group have shown, having 25 years experience ,
    and excellent educational qualifications are no guarantee of finding work 
in this
    slowly shrinking market segment
    
    Keep writing letters to Congress, and don't give up the good fight

Regards
Ken Shields
