I'd put this aside for a while 17 months ago

but will restart in a week or so. I should hopefully get a good reference from the volunteer job – I’m clearly capable of doing good work, when I’m comfortable with the environment I’m working in. They seem to appreciate the work I do there. :)



Have been looking through thousands of job ads in the past few days. 2 years ago

It’s stressful as hell. But I’m pushing myself through it.

Right now I’m concentrating on two possibilities – one’s an events assistant job at a charity for music education for children, whatever an events assistant is – the ad didn’t specify much, but it seems like something I could do okay at. The other, the one I’m more shooting for, is an editorial assistant job, which seems heaven sent because it doesn’t ask for experience or qualifications, but provides training on the job. And I think editing is one of my strengths. And it was through such random googling that I stumbled onto it. I hope that’s a good sign.

I’ll be busy as hell all tomorrow and this weekend to try to put together decent CVs and covering letters, so probably won’t be around much. But this is so important. Please keep your fingers crossed for me.



So stressed 2 years ago

about this. If only I could magically communicate that I’m capable – and I am – without qualifications, and despite the inexperience, and the gaps.



There's a job opening 2 years ago

that looks unbelievably perfect for me. I need to get my act together to apply by the 20th. There is much to do, so if I don’t seem to be around much, that’s probably why. Now that I’ve recovered from the RPM Challenge, I’m very much back to working on my 43things. This one is the most urgent right now.



The hunting for a job/jobs and volunteer placements 2 years ago

will begin in earnest next week – if I’m not around so much that’d probably be why. Wish me luck.
