Originally posted by RichardCranium View PostIt was on 18th December my head cold started.
On 23rd December we went away for Xmas. In the morning of the 23rd I was tired and coughing and sneezing and streaming. I felt awful and there was packing to do and a 4 hour drive to be done. But I still applied for some gigs that morning. Other people had said "There's no point looking for work in Xmas week, ha, ha!"
Other people were wrong.
One of those applications paid off.
I have an interview on Thursday up in the North West. My first face-to-face in 3 months. And its a PM role in my niche area paying a higher rate than any I've had since 2001.
And how many people are they interviewing?
One! Me! Having niche skills does pay off.
(But I wish the cough would go away. 39 days I have had it now.)
