Hello, this work is good indeed. I especially appreciate the info about softening contract job market. Would anyone know about statistics regarding new entrants to New Zealand’s job market (preferable for high-end, executive IT positions like VP, etc.) What is a typical time span for location and securing IT executive job? (In what region?) Is there a rising trend to the time it takes to secure such position? Any help about locating such information is highly appreciated – thank you.
