Database Contractor

Looking for at least one and maybe two entry level people who can start in January on a 12-16 week paid assignment (details are still up in the air but I'm thinking in the ballpark of $800-1200 per week) in the Charlotte area. Desired skills: SQL, Oracle, data warehousing, analytics Nice to have: some background in either manufacturing, finance, or supply chain; Must be comfortable communicating face-to-face with people, learning new technology quickly, spending 3-4 nights per week in a hotel. The intent is to bring these people up to speed on the business intelligence software so they can either a) be hired by my client as full time employees or b) be placed on other billable projects as independent contractors or c) be hired by another consulting firm. Feel free to pass this along to your husband if there are any December graduates who haven't found a job yet. Probably not a good fit for a compiler or operating system type... nor for someone who wants to code in a cubicle.
