IT-jobs in Israel

Hi, I'd like to get in touch with anyone knowledegeable on the possibilities to land a good Systems development/Programming-job in Israel. I have 7 years of working experience. I have MCAD, MCSD and MCT certifications from Microsoft and have also been teaching programming the past 5 years. I do however lack all sorts of degrees or college credits. I never got a chance to go to college before I got hired during the IT-boom in the late nineties. Would this generally be a problem in Israel? Does anyone know what the Israeli IT-business is like? Are there any jobs? What are the salaries like? Today I make roughly about $60k a year. I know this is quite a bit lower than the salaries in th US for example. Thanks, Magnus Lindberg, Stockholm, Sweden

There are IT jobs in Israel but

Don´t expect a salary of $60K/year, you could achieve not more than $30K/year in Israel in your job with your experience, and that's considered a very high salary in Israel but despite that your living standards you could afford yourself with such a salary in Israel would be a lot lower than they are now.
