The opposite has happened to me.... RBS role has unexpectedly got shelved and there is another role but "would confirm in 2-3 days" so I am going into Healthcare from next week as rather take whats on the table... negotiated a slight bump in the day rate (its not bad in comparison with cost of living) and a contract till nxt year (well on paper atleast) Looking at a rental next week when there - bargain £70/week all in (inc bills, sky+, tinternet) - house share with another... lets hope the other guy is ok. Otherwise its back on the hotel loyalty point bandwagon.
Hoping the health bill goes through in the US and then maybe just maybe I can contract there! I do hope to get some banking experience soon but ideally in London (easier to get to) then up'north.
Thanks for the advice - it did all make sense and I agree with the recommendations.... maybe I'll be in a bank in 3 mnths or 6mnths - lets see how the gig goes.
Congrats and well done. Just remember though, a contract is only as good as its notice period :-)
Thanks Peter... Notice period is the very standard PS - 28 days.
I have now a near 200 mile drive to look forward to on Monday morning. I would hope I will be adding more value here and getting personal satifaction then working in banking. Its not all about the money
