    I didn't get it. Not enough experience. But they are keeping me on file so maybe something else will come up. Plan B, will hunt down and kill the person who got it instead of me.

    Thanks guys. I know all interviews are good practice, but I just feel a bit down thinking that I have to soldier on doing something I’m not particularly enjoying, and struggling to deal with my debts for the rest of the year at least. Am going to keep looking anyway, but you’re right, it is tough out there. There has been some good news this week though - someone I did some unpaid work for (to build my profile) liked it and wants me to do more for them. No talk of money yet but will start playing hardball soon and maybe some will be forthcoming.
