Sorry, sorry, it's not supposed to be a job hunting blog but it's hard to think of other things just now.
This week I got my leaving date from work, 30th September is my last day. 10 years served and I was innocent I tell you ............... innocent! It will actually be 10 years and 5 months working in the same place.
So now I know when I'll be finished. I still don't have another job although the job with no salary has been in touch!
I had a phone interview with an HR person from a local company and was told I would hear by the end of the week ................... nothing! This is a one of those interesting jobs, its an area I'd like to get into but to do that I need to take a step back to get some experience. In some ways I'm over qualified, I have bundles of project management experience. In other ways I don't have enough, only limited experience in this area of the Pharmaceutical industry.
So I'd have to go from Senior Project Manager in manufacturing to at the highest an Associate Clinical Project Manager. Except there are no Associate jobs around so I'm going back an extra step to the support level to get the experience. Took some planning how to explain to the HR person that I'm not just using it as a stop gap while I find something better. I do want to do this so happy to take the step back / pay cut and work my way back up.
Waiting, waiting, waiting for them to get back to me. Even when they do it will probably just be to go for a face to face interview with the group manager. Then more waiting, waiting and waiting.
Just give me the job, I'm fab, I work hard, I'm great with people, modest and I can communicate. Go on!
Visualising getting the job offer in a positive thinking way.
Wish me luck :0)
