Throughout our history, we have remained close to the 'users' of software, systems and products. As such, we maintain active associations, and membership in a variety of user groups internationally, including the Southern Ontario (Canada) WebSphere Users Group, the Toronto CICS Association (executive member), the Wisconsin DB2 Users Group (founding sponsor), the Western Michigan WebSphere Users Group, the Wisconsin WebSphere Users Group, Share, IDUG, and countless others. We are also an occasional speaker/presenter at various vendor technical conferences. In addition, we enjoy participation in a few vendors early support, and Beta release programs, which we are under non disclosure agreement not to discuss these in specific detail.
Furthermore, as a provider of IT training services, we have even broader access to 'passive' candidates, enabling us to present candidates in many cases, who are only updating their resumes for the first time in many years.
VMS Providers
TxMQ works with all many VMS providers, and our North American based teams ensure quick, accurate on target candidate submission at, and beyond established company guideline metrics.
Placements
We work equally with contract candidates, and permanent candidates, yet our results historically, weight us at 40/60 permanent placements vs. contractors.

As a result of the depth and breadth of services offered, including the numerous technical publications the company produces, and the large training division, the company has a database of thousands of individuals who are not active candidates, but qualified nonetheless. Of course, in addition the company does subscribe to all major international job boards to supplement searches undertaken at client requests.
The company's focus, over the years, as previously touched on, has also expanded far beyond just 'mainframe' based skills, which now account for less than 25% of generated revenues. These skill areas include all major ERP systems (including SAP, PeopleSoft, BAAN, and others), EAI (Enterprise Application Integration), web services (SOA, ESB), database modeling, and administration (Sybase, DB2, Informix, Oracle, Sql), Systems Administration and engineering (all platforms), architecture (infrastructure, middleware, and database systems), WebSphere and Weblogic application server based technologies and solutions, and many more.
Typically, we do NOT work with junior candidates, those with less then 3 years of experience. As such, our candidates are most often earning, on average, annual salaries of a minimum of $60,000 per year. Many, more then twice that figure (based on experience, and position). Our contractors, follow a similar pattern.
