Back on the job trail/bench beckoning

27 April 2007, 12:26

Gulp - looks like I am not as good as I thought...Got a few weeks left and hadn't really looked for work until yesterday. Decided to get in the game and found some roles (couple contract - more permie(stuff I do is mainly perm)) and sent my shiny new CV accordingly.
Response has been less than enthusiastic, one agent saying not quite what we are after but will keep you in mind (went right up in my estimation for quick response (any is a blessing) and for a good and accurate explanation).
Apart from that - tumbleweed time...
Still - it's the summer, I am wadded from current contract so no pressure for a few months, might be time to smell the roses for a while !
Planning to do some training to fill in a gap also.
Good luck to all on the bench...

never fear.

something will turn up.
it always does

get your paperwork in order. get some training. bet the call that turns into a job comes in the middle of one of them.
