    Hi Orange Fairy,

    I've not been keeping up to date with things - how did that job interview go that you had a few weeks ago?

    Well done on the overpayment :)

    Thanks for asking Carrie - unfortunately i didn't get it. However from 50 applicants i got down to the last 2. This was the first job i have applied for so i have to take the positives from it that i must have marketable skills. I have long been made to feel like i should be lucky to have my current job so i really needed this boost. I am overqualified and underpaid for my current job and i have always bent over backwards for them. So this experience has given me the confidence i needed - gutted but still pleased with how i did! :D

    I'm sorry you didn't get the job but it's excellent that you got so far!

    I hope something else comes along soon for you :)
