		<description><![CDATA[Now, as we are about to find out just how bad things are, I&#8217;m getting increasingly frustrated by economists and the like poring over their numbers.

		<title>Pathetic IT Recruitment Agencies</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve heard many people say how hard it is to get a job in IT once you&#8217;re over 40. It may be the same in other areas but this is one I have plenty of experience in.
