So not been in work for some time due to bringing up the kids and studying. I applied for various jobs I saw advertised and got a interview at Debenhams (it was actually a recruitment event where we had to do various tasks then a 1:1 interview at the end). The tasks went well (I think) but there were 11 other people so alot of compettition. I was first to be called for the interview, not sure if thats a good sign or not. I think I answered everything ok, just got to wait 7-10 working days for the outcome....so glad its over lol

Fingers crossed for you teabag, I hope they come back with a job offer for you soon. Good on you for going along and giving it a go

don't read anything into being called first or last for 1to1 interview - will most probably be random!

Well I got some good and bad news.... I got a call from Debenhams to day and they offered me a hob yay, thats the good nws. The bad news is it isn't the permananet job I applied for its just a xmas temp dealing with stock 20 hrs per week till end of December (but a chance of permanent) but atleast this gets me back into some work and gets something on my cv and someone to put down as a reference. So pleased

Excellent news. It could be that nobody has been offered a permanent job, they'll pick that person from whoever impresses them over the course of the run up to Christmas - good luck with it being you.Make £2026 in 2026
