I would try and work with/network with some of my old associates but I’m in a different state now(literally).. if they would have allowed some flexibility as far as telecommuting I’d probably still work there to begin with.
I guess I’m underestimating the difficulty in growing roots in a completely new city/state.
I had an interview for a small contract recently and they sent me these 5 questions about ”how do you feel when you code” etc, lame stuff. So I replied back and said not interested. They called back and said OK nevermind, you can start tomorrow.
I guess I just became disillusioned through using Dice and Craigslist lately – but I’m glad to hear you all confirm that those sites are playing some game/resume farming.
