Good perl programmers are always hard to find, especially as the perl programmers we need have to be genius's in the making. We are always on the lookout for perl programmers, more so at the moment as we have some heavy contract work on and falling behind. It is always hard for us to find the right people so we have taken to issuing test tasks to people to complete before we make our minds up, though this isnt always the best way as it ends up with a lot of people doing the same task without reward if we don't like them. But we just dont really know of other ways of really getting the right people on board. If you are looking for paid, reliable work from your own location then we have space for about 2 more full time or 4 part time perl programmers. Mainly data (text) processing and manipulation, all good fun and all. pm me if you are interested in looking at what we do.
