I was contacted today with this position and thought I'd share the wealth in case anyone would like to be considered: "Hi Adam thanks for you time today. I need for a ColdFusion developer to start sometime next week it is a two month project in Alpharetta, the candidate must have their own laptop, project details are below. Project Description This is a total compensation application which enables clients to present to their internal employees what their total employment package consists of. This application shows an employee what their salary, pension, 401k, vacation, bonus potential etc. will be. The client has a current application that collects this information and it is written in CF, XML,XSLT but their client wants it presented in a different way for their company. The framework is in place but unlike all of our reqs so far there are absolutely no written specs telling these developers what to work on.
