The fact that my tax next tax disc is going to be worth more than the value of my car (according to my insurer). It therefore applies that: The trousers, shirt, shoes, belt and watch I am wearing have a greater combined value than my car. My tax disc (6 fcuking month one) is worth more than the car The stereo in the car doubles its value. Christ... the tools I keep in the bastard thing to help me when it finally breaks down are, you guessed it - greater than the value of my car. It won't be long before liquid in the canister below my seat is worth more than my car. Admiral MultiCar - thank you. It has been life changing

Telling a prospective employer up front exactly what package you need to make the move, going through 5 interviews, being told they really want you but getting an offer of less than the required amount. Baffling waste of time.

 

What a load of shite that is.  5 interviews baffles belief.  No company needs to do that really.

 

Sorry to hear that Alex.

 

Before I took the job I'm in 3yrs back I had to go on a course to get me back in to work, obviously quicker than the folk who have been long term unemployed.  And the guy taking the course was giving examples of businesses & how they deal with rejected applicants.  Coka Cola apparently invite all rejected applicants back for a 2hr induction on why they were rejected?  Would anyone waste there time, like rejections not bad enough, you go to be told your sh!t & there's better out there, in there opinion. Glad I don't like Coke.

Thats where you and i are different. People don't like to be told they are doing things wrong. I'm the kind of person who wants to know what they thought was wrong so that I could "fix" it for future interviews. No point going through a ton of interviews with companies all dismissing you for the same reason.

Just to say this all worked out well - in fact better than I could imagine.

 

On the same day Company 1 made the low offer I got asked to interview at Company 2.  Company 1 heard this through my recruiter and offered the full amount, but I wanted to go through the process with Company 2.

 

They liked me so much at Company 2 they cut the process down to three days and last night made an exceptional offer.

 

Ironically (is it?) if Company 1 had made the full offer straight off I would have taken it.  Likewise if they hadn't gone through such a long interview process they would have offered sooner.  So thank you Company 1!
