Mainframe Job Sites in the USA and the UK

There are signs that the mainframe job market is starting to pick up pace - contract and permanent. I believe there are fundamentals at work here - the aging, greying, bits falling off mainframe workforce are starting to retire in large numbers without the youth coming in to fill their shoes This is coupled with a resurgence of the mainframe as central to the new Enterprise IT architectures. SOA, Business Integration, virtualization and the zAAP, ZIIP, IFL and hipersocket world we inhabit is making IBM zSeries z/OS systems, DB2 DBA, and mainframe application development skills more and more lucrative. If you are a mainframe professional or someone thinking of switching over to mainframe (like I say I think now is a good time) then there is a comprehensive list of US and UK online IT jobsites at http://www.mainframe-upgrade.com/computer-job-sites.php .
