After working for 3 years for an Investment bank giant i thought i'ld try the other side of the universe and joined a young java consultancy firm. Three months later they folded !!
Maybe that was a lesson in humbleness (as if I needed one) but people live and learn...
The upside is that i've now decided to relocate to Germany and find a job there, so I can spend more time with my girlfriend. I get quite good response from agencies there so I'm hoping something comes through within the next 4 weeks.
