No real point to this thread other than to say that after 5 years out due to injury, retraining and the recession, my OH has now landed her ideal job, back in the industry whe used to work in and on more money than before.

Just had to share it really.

I suppose it also proves it may take time but it can happen.

    Well done to OH. Good to get feedback on a success. What do you put it down to? Is it just persistance and hard work?

    That and a little luck but only regarding the timing of the job. She has been on a 6 month contract in a cra**y job which ended the day she found out about this one, couldn't have been better timed. On Grocerjobs alone her account has over 75 applications in the last 6 months so def. hard work & persistance.
