jb-eye Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 Not sure if that was supposed to be sarcastic or not (I find sarcasm does'nt tranfer well on the internet) but I did'nt bring him along to "hold my hand", he was just giving me a lift in the car as I'd never been to Manchester before and Ben decided to let us both in as we were about half an hour early... Anyway, hope you had a good laugh at my expense. 56435[/snapback] Whoo easy son! Im not laughing you asked a serious question and I offered an honest reply I asked Ben where I could help you on interview as per your question. Now I was late in replying to you and for that im sorry but I do have a job. Now as it is Ben made a number of recommendations but the one I mentioned stuck out. Apparently you interviewed well and were quite near the top of a very large list. I sincerely wish you well. Jef Customers!

It was stupid of me to jump to conclusions like that. I've had a stressful day (looking for a job when your halfway through moving houses and your car's knackered is'nt the best mix of things) but that's no excuse to snap like that, especially when the advice being offered was genuine and sincere. Again, I hope there are no hard feelings between us Jef! It was a genuine misintepretation on my behalf and not a personal reflection on yourself or Ben. Thanks for the comments, they have made me feel alot better now I know what's happening Trade Member Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/6404-interview-advice/page/2/#findComment-56444 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest G.J.M Posted June 11, 2005 Share Posted June 11, 2005 nope. I was still an apprentice and deceided that i wanted to do something else. The job was with Swinton Insurance who are now no more. So in the end i'm glad i gave him my coat as i'm very happy at what i do now and if i got the job,it would have shut in a few months after anyway.
