Yesterday I sent a CV into Thoughtworks - a consultancy, but I've heard good things about them. Also trawled Jobserve and came up with six leads. Send my CV off to those and got 2 phone calls back within the hour - one from Rakesh at Microcom and the other from Paul and Starfish. I also followed up Lime Tree and Blackley, but Lime Tree has nothing at present, and I've not heard back from Blackley yet.
Today I tried to follow up some personal contacts. Sent an email to Tony at APT, and tried to talk to Alex at Omgeo and Don at Heliograph - couldn't get hold of either one, so have to try those again. More success with John at C24 - I've sent my CV in, so I shall talk to him again soon hopefully.
Still no final word from Start about Trayport, and the other four Jobserve applications are also silent so far. I also found another new thing on ECM but the agent I normally deal with is away, so I need to talk to someone else there.
