Just came back from lunch with an old coworker from CGI. Really funny guy with a good head on his shoulders. We talked about the fact I'm looking for a new job. There are some really interesting possibilities with Genome Quebec.
In a nutshell, I was consulting for CGI on the GQ project last year, so I know what they want and what they're working on. Now CGI's mandate for GQ is ending today, and apparently they have funds for another 6 months of development. They also have a ton of side-projects they want to start. That means they'll need to hire people.
Veeeeeeeery interesting. At worst, my salary stays the same. At best, I get a 15-20K yearly increase. In either case, the benefits are better and I'm working on really interesting projects in my field of choice.
Just lemme dust off the old CV and see what happens!
