    Jobs Applied for today: 5 (running total this week - 10)

    Degrees: 2

    Debt: £21000 Student Loans (plus others)

    I think I was mis-sold the value of a degree and the positive effect it can have on your earning capacity.

    But I have hope!! :D


    at least that student loan will get written off after a few years:)

    Recruitment, 21k, it sucks but it's a job
    Also work for Lionbridge part time which brings in an extra bit each month
    In between I do promo jobs and some other little bits and peices.
    I graduated from a very good university in 2003, and have never used my degree in any job, never even had it as a requirement (even in my senior position within a top 100 blue chip sales co!). It was interesting, but not worth the paper it's written on (unless you're willing to work for peanuts on graduate starting salaries);)
    The only thing we know for sure, is that we know nothing

    Scientist, 30k a year.
    Perks include a good pension and lots of flexibility in terms of working hours. I come and go as I please but the work always has to get done.

    I am 38, so I kind of feel I have failed in my career. I know people who have become professors at a younger age than I am now, earning twice my salary.

    Just a quick update no luck with the interview so still on £0 salary, but I guess I'm that one step closer now to getting a "+" on the salary front. Thanks for the good luck messages.

    29 - chartered accountant for an oil company. salary £48k, 12.5% contribution to pension scheme by employer (2.5% from me), private health care, gym membership, 30 days holiday

    took 4 years of uni, then 3 years of further exams to become chartered - was tough at the time, but hopefully reaping the benefits financially now.
