Informal chat for a job I haven't applied for

Just go for it, as Sangie says what have you got to lose.
The new job I'm starting in November was a speculative application even though I'm already in a secure job. He was only looking for someone part time and I sent my stuff off saying if anything full time comes up please keep me in mind.
He decided that actually, he could cater for someone full time and my CV was too impressive to just let me slip through the net. Much the same as you.
Wow congratulations! :cool: :beer:
This is the whole reason why I make speculative applications in the first place.
But I'm just still worried that I won't get the expected outcome - the job itself, if there is one.
Also I've actually got headhunted today from a company who I previously rejected so I might go there too to increase my opportunities.
I can safely say things are actually starting to look up.
