    I can have a look at anything you if want a second eye and opinion.

    I used to read through peoples essays in uni, or cover letters and so on, but I wouldn't be interested in payment for it; makes a bit of an obligation to produce if you know what I mean?

    Ariarnia - thanks for the suggestion unfortunately I went with my own version as I had to get it done before i went to work. I've not heard anything yet so am hoping that the interviewer is off ill and hasn't been able to see anyone. But I am also beginning to think that I won't hear anymore about the 2nd interview, which is a shame as I know I would be brilliant but won't get the chance to show them :(

    Oh and just to say that mobile number wasn't mine I just used some random numbers but have edited it out anyway now.

    :j Just to let you all know I've just had a phone call for a 2nd interview on Monday during my lunchbreak. All of a sudden my dark cloud has lifted and I suddenly feel so much happier and brighter!

    That is fantastic news. Well done and, when you get the job, you'll be excellent at it.

    thankyou so much that would be fabulous, its always good to get a second opinion I think. I actually had a call earlier from an agency about a job I applied for ages ago, so might have a potential interview next week. Fingers crossed, I dont want to waste your time so if I dont hear anything from them I would be very grateful if you could have a glance over it.

    Incidentally my OH is looking at getting a complete re-write of his CV and has spoken to a number of companies out there that offer this service, market rate seems to be about £500! ouch!!!
