Title: Probably should be under another heading but Oz Monsters is who I want answer Post by: Ontario_Monster on October 01, 2008, 11:14:40 AM Looking for IT consulting firms that have a good rep, currently working in Canada for RBC Dexia on contract and really just need a change of location. The idea or riding year round appeals to me. So I'm in IT, as a TSA / Informix/Netezza/Oracle DBA. Just looking for firms to submit my resume to and see what comes of it.
Cheers And thanks for the advice.

Title: Re: Probably should be under another heading but Oz Monsters is who I want answer Post by: SKOM on October 01, 2008, 03:21:27 PM If you do end up relocating let me know. I have intimate knowledge of the mechanics for emmigrating from Canada to Oz. ;)
Not sure about any IT firms though. One thing to check if you get stuck is to go though a recuiter. They do all the legwork but your pay will prob be a bit less. :-\ Title: Re: Probably should be under another heading but Oz Monsters is who I want answer Post by: Ontario_Monster on October 02, 2008, 07:16:20 AM Thinking of re-locating, I have a friend that went but ended up back here because he was a boob and didn't close out his business issues here first. He raved about .... well about a number of things but the work was interesting which is a key point for me. I also have another friend who is starting the ball rolling for a move from Paris there, really right now I'm looking for contacts I know there are a lot of international firms but they often confuse things as Contracts in North America are viewed differently than every where else (Thanks again Microsoft).
So here are my key points; 1. Work environment 2. The actual work 3. $ 4. Location 5. How long do I have to close out my stuff here and prep for a move. Thanks for the advice and commnets, I'll be getting back to some of you in the next couple of weeks.

Most staff seem to have a clue (unlike the last mob, EDS "Everything Done Slowly"). I don't know what Logica are like to work for however. Anyway, my two cents worth. Cheers, Ducsport
