Does anyone have any recommendations for agencies who have experienced IT staff on their books? I'm looking to recruit one or two people on a medium term contract and don't know where to look.

Thanks,
Harold

What sort of contract and when were you looking to start?

I'm out of the country and not due back for another month or so.

Hi Jimbo - I'm looking for developers with the following experience:

Technical:
- VB
- .Net / C#
- PLSQL / Transact SQL
- XML / SOAP / Webservices
- Installshield
- Middleware (Websphere MQ)

Other skills / experience:
- Financial Industry exposure, especially Credit Risk a big plus
- Experience of requirements analysis, specification writing, Test plans etc
- Software implementations planning and execution
- Languages - English essential, Mandarin a bonus

I'm looking for people who would be available for 3-6 month contracts, working in Hong Kong. We customise a popular credit risk analysis product that is used in financial institutions across Asia, and have a current need for developers to support the work we are doing. I guess a minimum of 3-5 years experience with these kind of technologies would be required. Some work would be using proprietary tools, and some would be using the aforementioned products.

I don't want to turn this into a job advertisement - I'm sure there's somewhere else on the forum I should post that! ...but if you know anyone who fits the bill, please PM me

Ah right well your criteria rules me out I'm afraid, but you can try agencies such as manpower and robert walters out here, they have good knowledgable agents.

The only problem you may find though is that the I.T contract market here in HK is pretty much non existant compared to say London for example.

Thanks Jimbo. I've put an ad in the classifieds section and will also get in touch with some agencies.
