I'm in finance myself, and I've had tremendous success with VACO Raleigh LLC. They landed me 2 different contracts in 1 year. I was also brand new to the area. Good Luck. I'm currently unemployed as well again as my contract ended. It's a tough market right now. I'm not kidding when I say in the last two weeks I had 9.....count them....9 interviews (was interviewed by 9 different people) with one CRO company for a finance job....only to be finally turned down. Would I go back to where I came from....no way....there are more solid companies and much better economy in RTP.....so something's bound to turn up.
