Happy New Year to all in the analog world! 2004 was a record year for Analog Solutions. We have grown to 5 people to help keep up with the demand for analog talent. Our most recent recruiter Manjul Gupta joined us from Texas Instruments where he was a Analog Product Marketing Manager. His focus will be on Marketing, Applications, Test and Product Engineering. You can review his Bio on the www.analogsolutions.com site under "Meet our Team" We are expecting 2005 to again be a record year. We are working on a variety of interesting opportunities in our space. The hottest areas are in RF IC, ADC's and Image Sensors. We welcome discussing current and future opportunities with candidates who believe that the time is now for enhancing their career position! I again will be writing my column for Planet Analog on a regular basis and encourage all with an interest in the trends in the analog job space to keep an eye on the site www.planetanalog.com
