I am trying to get back home to Houston and am in need of an I.T recruiter; or even better yet one that specializes in informatics Does anyone know of one ? I have tried just going the normal route of applying for positions online but so far no nibbles.

Background : I have a bachelors of science in computer science, a Masters of Biomedical informatics, and over 10yrs of software development experience.

Just post your resume to every major job site (Monster, Careerbuilder, etc.) and if you have skills that are in demand they will find you. In the meantime, hit up Indeed, Simplyhired, etc., for applying for jobs that match your skillset. Good luck.

My last few I.T. contract assignments in Houston was via ComSys and Spherion. A Google search should find an office closest to your area of the city.

Thanks y'all I am on all of the major boards with no luck... so I will indeed hit up the other places mentioned. If anyone knows of a place looking for a Uniface developer DM me.

(yeah i]I am almost at the groveling stage; but in my defense you would be too if you had to live in Portland, Or)

There are plenty of open IT positions in Houston. What exactly are you looking for? Informatics is a general term that most commercial employers won't associate open positions with from my experience. Companies I work with are looking for specific functional, application, platform, or programming language experience. The best route will vary based on your specific expertise and interest.

Houston should be a Silicon Valley.
