The Boofon Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Spin off from "How Much You Reckon A Good Night Out Costs" thread. Anyone out of work or fancy a change of career then have a look in this thread. Fire up any decent adverts you may have seen or received via email that you're not interested in taking. This might be worth a punt for anyone up North who fancies a change of career. :thumbs: Was sent this in error but who knows it might be ideal for someone.

StandFree1982 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 I need a new job. Got a couple of interviews lined up so fingers crossed i'll find something suitable. I can get over 20% more wages doing a similar job elsewhere at the moment, so time to move on! (not just about the money, but it's definitely a motivation) Link to comment

The Boofon Posted May 24, 2012 Author Share Posted May 24, 2012 Software Engineer. Sounds like IT geekery to me. Bobby Connor might be able to help. Link to comment
StandFree1982 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Sounds like IT geekery to me. Bobby Connor might be able to help.I stuck my CV on Oil Careers and about 6 agencies calling me in the following 2 days asking me if I was interested in xyz jobs. Looks like there are plenty around, i've just got to pick the right one now! (and make sure I get the fucker when it comes down to the Interview!). Our work is meant to be giving us pay rises soon, heard that the base rate is 1.5%, that would be an insult if they gave us that! Kinda hoping I find a job just as they tell me "here's 2% pay rise" so I can tell them to shove it. Link to comment
StandFree1982 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 If Progressive Recruitment phone you, don't deal with them. Utter root agency! I ditched them, and stopped responding to their mails & calls.Not heard from them yet. Have had AAA, RightPeople, Bryant, RZGroup, Huxley and a few others that I can't remember. Link to comment
tommo1903 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Triple A are the best recruitment agency in Aberdeen, IMO. Link to comment
tup Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Huxley are quite annoying also, but if you get the lad Steve McMahon he's alright. Not if your name is Vincent Jones I imagine. Link to comment
StandFree1982 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 AAA got me my first job years ago and have set me up with an interview with another job soon, so I have to credit them with being pretty decent so far. Link to comment
The Boofon Posted May 24, 2012 Author Share Posted May 24, 2012 Not if your name is Vincent Jones I imagine. Why does Vincent's surname not have a Capital letter and what does the initial I stand for in his name? Link to comment

How can you be pretty much a joiner? You either are or aren't I would have thought unless of course you are just coming to the end of your apprenticeship or something? Link to comment
Redmist1903 Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 Don in Oz would maybe marry you. If that is Don in Oz's photo on his personal profile then he looks like he would probably keep you in a basement. Link to comment
