Job hunting is so fucking demoralizing.
Isn’t that Mike Ashley’s clownshow? Sounds like you dodged a bullet.
That said, I suppose depending on where you are in your career, it’s good experience and portfolio work.
Reminds me of the police service in Scotland inviting people to complete a survey… about their stay in police custody. I’m not entirely sure what results they’re expecting there. Probably the brainchild of some “management consultant” who has probably never set foot in a public building before.
Dodged a bullet in the sense that I’m sure it’s a shit company, but right now, I just need a job that pays more than £29,000 a year so I can get a family visa for my wife and daughter. Any job. I will worry about a good job later. I even held my nose and applied for a job at Phillip-Morris.
I have what I have been told multiple times is a very impressive CV, but so far, no luck. I have about two months’ worth of savings to find a job.
Good luck.
When I joined the workforce full time a good number of years ago. I was chuffed to fuck to be earning £20k a year at the time. In the intervening years, the cost of living has gotten ludicrous.
In metropolitan areas, I’m not quite sure how anyone but the DINKys can cope with the financial pressures of city living.
The only advise I can give you is make a people network for yourself. Make connections everywhere since life is more about who you know than what you know.
