    It's ongoing temporary so I will be looking for something else permanent but it's such a relief!

    Keep going everyone, we're all getting our turn now :)

    I GOT THE JOB!!!! The agency just phoned me, I start on Monday :D:D

    I'm so pleased!


    :j:j:j:j

    Soooo pleased for you Drea! I knew it was only a matter of time, with all those interviews your luck had to change at some point!

    Sad day for me today. Applied for jobs this morning but feeling really, really down. I would do anything for that 'You've got the job' phone call/letter/email, feels like it's never going to come.

    Same here today. It's funny because I got the hottest lead on a job I've had in a long time, sent off the appropriate email inviting the appropriate person for lunch with some requested ideas but then just felt oddly deflated. Drea's news has cheered me up a bit!

    I know the feeling, I've been feeling it all this week. Everyone will get work who is really trying, it's just a matter of when.

    Do you guys mind if I stick around? :o

    Drea,

    Fantastic news, congratulations to you. What a great end to the week.

    Please stick around, you started this thread which so many people are grateful for and your advice is always welcome.

    So, that's three people who have found work this week, that's the target to beat for the rest of us next week.

    And typically another agency is putting me forward for a role that is perm and pays quite a bit more.... but interviews would be Wed/Thurs.... could be an issue.
