Misgivings

Despite all my negative background noise about the council I quite enjoyed the interview. Told them always best to employ the first candidate. Was quite light hearted whilst keeping a serious face. Might work for me. Might work against me.....again!

Choices.....?

Public sector v private sector. Two different beasts 

and I have worked in both. Can see good and bad in all. Choice....do I have one or is it better not to consider the minutiae of life too deeply? This public sector interview (in one hour from now) will keep me in Aberdeen, give me an income and, ironically, a pension. Don't forget self esteem and adding new skills to my profile (will lengthen  my CV too!). More importantly it means a lot for me and Marie.

more interviews

A recent interview with a large oil and gas operator was cancelled as it was filled internally. Real shame as this would have been an excellent opportunity. It did, however, encourage me to brush up on my competencies. When you look closely and dig deep it is very interesting to see what you know and have achieved. Back to the drawing board!
