There are very few people who can do commentary on sports without feeling the need burden the world with their opinions on every subject under the sun, apart from naming horses they are pointless, I don't need one when I go to games why do I need one when watching on TV?

Where on earth do you sit in the stadium? As there are usually plenty of people more than happy to give a running commentary for anyone within earshot!

So after being out the game for a while and spending the last 3 years in Project Management I had an interview to get back into Travel looking after the sales and marketing for two hotels in London, early doors but I feel like I aced the interview to the point the head was giving me next interview coaching tips on what the Commercial Head wants to hear amongst other things. Getting a 2nd and final interview on the spot also felt good.

Don't wanna get too ahead of myself but felt very good coming off the back of that.

Its a strange market at the minute, I got paid out in December and have taken a break as managing a staff of 200 and taking them through a redundancy process takes alot out of you and I also have luckily had the benefit of being able to take my time to look.

But since I poked my head back in the job market seems abit of a mess, the whole, too many jobs not enough people seems at a certain level, at others there seems to be alot of moving and alot of options for employers. I have used linkedin Jobs to source leads but try to then mine out who the contacts are rather than use their system, some jobs have 200+ applicants.

Luckily this job I was recommended for, going in early too so can maybe form the role...I had a call back and have the second interview on property today at 3pm

Good luck, hope it goes well for you.

I was told I was going to be 'paid off' in December, it dragged on on till March. Garden leave ends 1st of July. Yes the job market is totally bizarre (well it is to an old bloke like me).

Im 40 and feel old in the market TBH, thats why I have taken my time, its also about balance for me now, I want abit more flexiblity and know I will put more into the job for that than if I was in a forced environment

Managing the redundancy process is very stressful if you have built a team and have a good relationship with your staff.
 
This hugely ironic but also tragic Titanic disappearance is sad

I hope they manage to find them and their location has not drifted from where they were meant to be. I saw a video that the owner or inventor made where he basically said you can't see nothing infront of your nose down there and they often drifted off course not knowing whats what, that also makes the search and rescue much harder though

Hope it goes well for you. Relax, breathe and talk clearly.
 
I’m in jobseekers myself at the moment! Never bothered before but the guy was alright.

Have been applying for lots of jobs but it has tightened up.
 
I made a decision many years ago that i would always work for myself and not tie myself to be employed by others. It was not always easy and i may have made more money working for others but i have been self employed for the vast majority of my time and never had to accept brick from employers or companys.

Been doing the same for two years now. Will certainly encourage my boys to follow suit.
