Hi everyone,
Sitting here buzzing at the moment. I have just got a phonecall offering me a new job at Zurich Financial in Cardiff starting on 19th Feb and to say I'm pleased is probably the understatment of the year.
I was made redundant back in Sept and after taking a month out to chill the job hunting began. Applications were sent, some were replied to with a 'Thanks but no thanks', some I heard nothing from at all. Have been to what seems like a million interviews answering the same questions and trying to 'sell' myself.
I applied for this particular job last Monday via email and had a phonecall on Tuesday to arrange a telephone interview for Wednesday. At the end of the call I was asked to attend an interview on Friday. All went well and came out feeling really positive, but didn't want to get my hopes up. Was told that I'd get feedback within 48 hours.
What a long weekend this has been and today my phone just doesn't seem to have stopped ringing. Then I finally got the call I was waiting for, I nearly screamed at the woman when she told me the good news, I was shaking and could hardly speak. She then said, "I take it you want to accept the job offer then?".
Going to be strange after all this time to get back into the routine of getting up with the alarm clock at the crack of dawn again, but really excited about the whole thing too.
So I called, text and emailed all the necessary friends and relatives, so now I thought I'd share the news on here too, as I'm home alone now and no-one's around for me to get excited with!!
Anyway just wanted to share my good news with you all,
Cheers
