[singkit]

I am already 6 months in uk and now am ready looking for a job.I had made a calls yesterday morning for a job inquiries but no luck and now am off for our local job centre.When I was making a call yesterday they were asking me what am i doing for my six months here in uk,when I told them nothing much really just visiting different places and they are also asking for some experience how could people have some experience if no one would hire them for a job to experiencei told them for my previous experience abroad and ask me to give them my number and call me back am not expecting for a return call.There`s plenty of jobs but the problem is its quite far from where we live,i just want to walk a few distance from where we areso that I could just walk everyday but anyway lets see whatever happens.wish me luck guys!

Dont worry MrsDaddy, you're not alone. I'm in the same situation as you are now. I find JoeBloggs posts and messages very inspiring and motivating. I've read lots of his posts relating to his wife's experiences in job hunting. At first I thought I only need an NI number to make it easier for me to find a job here but the referees are also an issue to me because I'm just new here , aint got no one to ask for as character reference. My work overseas and in the Philippines seem not being noticed or credited as employers want job experience in the UK. But, what I've learned from it is rejection can be harsh but it thickens your skins and gives you strong backbones. Never stop dreaming, my friend. We'll soon find a good job.

as my wife works for the nhs, they paid for a CRB (criminal records bureau) check on her, they also asked for 2 references, for 1 of the references we used her dean at the medical uni she attended in laguna, her mom checked with the dean, and he said no problem, and also wrote a letter of recommendation for her, and posted it to us in the UK without charging us anything how many deans or professors in the uk would do that , i don't know if the hospital contacted her dean, with the philippines being 7hrs+ in front, maybe they didn't, i don't know.. but she was asked to attended an interview and was offered the job later the same night ...

only problem we had was they wanted her to go for blood tests and jabs etc, and she told the nurse that she couldn't have certain jabs as she was pregnant. days later she got a call from the manager who interviewed her and had offered her the job, saying "we have a problem" - meaning my wife was pregnant, i told my wife to not let him bully her into quitting before she had even started, she stood her ground, and she has now been working there for nearly a year, and the trust is sending on some courses, so stand your ground, hold on, and you will get there in the end, good luck ladies
