thanks - Ive signed up to dux already, the other one is full... what would you say the going rate is here, I was on $25 an hour in WA...
also is there anything in melbourne you would say we really shouldn't miss... the next wave festival looks good...

you can get $37 with Dux in Melbourne, that's the going rate here. If it's a top notch design firm knock that up to $45.
Over time your rate gets better with Dux, like a reward for your loyality if you like...
If you manage to get a client away from the recruitment agancies you will do well, up that rate $55 to $65... nicethere's everything in Melbourne that you shouldn't miss! (don't know if that made sense) doesn't matter, get over to where it's at!

havnt spoken to dux but ive been pretty happy with Aquent.
was called by them last week re some After Effects work but too busy. Maybe they still have something going.

couldnt get to see aquent they say they have a full book at the moment, dont think they want to bother with me as im only going to be around for 3 months or so. Managed to see Dux after really bugging them but again they said that three months isnt long enough for them to get involved but I left them a copy of my CD just in case.
Looking forward to the Next Wave Festival - if I get a job in time that is so I dont have to fly home broke...
