I have an interview at work. It's an 18.5 hour post which would (with my admin job) take me up to full time. The person who would be my manager sits next to me and the other person on the panel is the head of service who I look after in my current admin role so it's going to be a bit weird!

It's managing the NVQ assessors and putting together work related training packages or courses for employers who we sign up to offer their staff. It's heavily involved with the Train to Gain initiative and in the future I think will have Apprenticeship scheme overseeing added to it. It's a bit of a new step in some ways. I've been a manager and am used to dealing with outside/partnership organisations, but I know virtually nothing about NVQ's and all the stuff that goes with it.

I'm hoping that saying achievement, success, signposting, quality standards, portfolio and targets randomly as answers to any question will be sufficient! :rotfl:

oh, and I think there is only 1 other candidate......

Hiya guys, so busy at work don't seem to get time to come on much till real late. This job is really getting me down now, nearly ready to throw in the towel:eek:, I've had no sleep again and can't convince mr and mrs that all is well doh.

BB hope the interveiw goes well

Still trying to get some time off over the weekend, really want to join the meet:mad::mad: could have 2 hrs, hoping for 4. Could stick mr and mrs on the beach with an icecream to keep them quiet. My flat is by the clock, but let out so can't enjoy it at the mo, oh to win the lottery;)

Sal, I hate ironing with a vengance :eek:

Red, where are you on FB, you can find me by looking on friends I'm the one in wedding gear with my son at his recent wedding, we do scubb up well he he

Of for a cuppa, hopedfully be back but will read up later anyway

Well if they know you, they'll know how quickly you can pick things up. I've had a bit of info about Train to Gain funding etc at work but still can't follow it all - not sure if anyone can! :rotfl:Go for it - would be great if you can fit the two jobs together

HWGA - are your initials EP?

well this is it - everything keeps changing!! there are just so many organisations involved it's mad trying to understand what they all do, which are important and how they all fit together.

Ta That is the plan and then when this other 18.5 hour post comes up, try to get that and drop the admin post.

Squizz, good luck for tonight, and BB good luck for tomorrow.

Someone on here posted that all the Somerfields are closing today so go get bargains. Which we did, only to find that there's no sign of either of the nearby ones closing down, so a bit of a wasted trip.

But I'm really impressed with Yorkshire Water, I filled an online form in at 11am about getting a water meter, they phoned at three and someone's coming round first thing in the morning to check it out!

not heard that the little one near me is Ames....I only went there a few days ago and it didn't look like a store about to shut

Thanks Ames Catch you all tomorrow x
