Having taken a couple of weeks off over xmas from job hunting I have now resumed the quest for employment.

16 jobs applied for since Jan 1st.

A near miss this week that almost saw me re-locating/commuting to Market Harborough.

It seems I am 'Overqualified'.  evil:




Both Mrs TMR (to be) and I have had this as an excuse recently. The bottom line is that a lot of people are afraid of losing their own positions and the last thing they want is someone coming in who could show them up and jeopardize their cushy little numbers.  In ways, it's a compliment, but one that isn't helpful in our situation.

Keep plugging away and best of luck.

I've had this as well - knowing more than the person who is going to be your boss, does not always go down very well. Depends on how they want to employ you. My outlook is that they are getting more for their money as most jobs I am looking at are paying less than I was earning before.

I also found it odd that at the moment, most of the jobs I am applying for, are for schools.
That includes the one that TMR attended.

School vacancies are not really odd ~ Education is one of the sectors with money to burn at the moment.

I am surprised that there are so many of them. They are nearly all independent schools.

Is this a sector with a high turn-over?

Begs the question why.
