Oohhhwahhh....

No really, it is all ok - just a few bumps in the road - of course - a lack of bumps would be good for a while though.....

Possum's traineeship runs out SOON (in a few weeks)
It doesn't lead onto another job - he may be unemployed for a while :(

I was bored off my goard the other night while the cricket was on - (sorry I don't do footy or cricket, un Australian? possibly in that regard!!)

So I did the rounds of the job boards - and found THE ONE on the government website - it would be so ideal....a follow on from what he is doing, in that he is currently working at Primary/High School and this job is at a College - ironically the same College Small Man will be attending this year.....yep really!!

He made a huge start to his application last night - and was going to ask Chris, a guy at work who is a year ahead of Poss (he was the trainee the year before Possum) to check his 'addressing of criteria' which basically requires almost a full page of writing per criteria and examples of work you have done.....

He sent me a msg this morning at 9am - Chris has applied for the job too :(

I am just hoping that Possum's interview is better, or that his application is more what they are looking for, or something.
Chris has a permanent full time job already, earning good money etc.......

May the best nerd win I say :D

p.s. Since writing this I have sought the advice of a now retired ex interviewer/IT teacher that we have a lot of respect for - he helped Possum prepare for his interview for the traineeship - he is going to have a look at his application before we send it - which will be tomorrow.  

I also found some help/a guide to addressing criteria which is like gold - now I know what to do.

Basically I have asked Possum to give me the raw info - and I will put it together and edit it etc

Did I mention it's over 20 years since I went to school......this sort of stuff fries the brain, good job I love the boy so much eh ♥
