first day at work...

It was my first day at work today!

I've got no desk, no computer and no log-on details but I have got a nameplate for my door! All I need now is a door to put it on :oP

Hopefully I should have somewhere to sit by the end of the week. Seems there's gonna be a re-organisation as to where people go so it might not be just me with a new office and desk.

So far everyone I've met has been really nice and friendly.

no more dole scum...

I've joined the life of the employed again!

I got offered the PA role at the hospital I went for and I have accepted :o) My start date is yet to be confirmed as I have to have a CRB check (criminal records bureau) but as long as they don't find out I'm a master criminal everything will be OK :o)

The role seems to have changed since I went to the interview too. I won't be PA to both, I'll only be PA to one - the General Manager. Sounds like it could be a good role.

another interview...

I had another interview today. Another PA role to two mangers, this time at a private hospital.

The interview seemed to go really well and I wasn't my usual panicky worried self when it comes to interviews, I was actually quite relaxed which I think helped a lot! I hate all those "tell me a time when you..." questions. They're a load of ***. Instead they asked questions which were a "what would you do in this situation" question. Much better!

So, the wait begins.

bad luck...

I didn't get that job I went for on Friday. No real feedback other than to say that they have shortlisted a few other candidates who they feel "better suit their environment". Whatever that means!

Oh well, they're loss! :o)

temporary job...

I started a 3 week temp job today to help pay the rent and put food in our mouths.

I've got a week of training followed by a week of holiday cover and then a final week where they're using me to help finish backlogs of work.

At least it's money and will help to allow me to keep looking for that perfect permament job!

interview...

Got my first interview tomorrow! It's a PA role to two managers for a company based on the Kings Road in Reading so nice and handy. And it sounds like a nice company to work for so fingers crossed!
