Get Firefox! "my blog doesn't just deal with my life, it deals with some important stuff too"

Blimey that was fast

I just applied for a job, and half an hour later I got a call from the agency dealing with it to confirm my details and to get a better idea of who I am. Then she described the company the application will actually be going to. They're a small company based in Newbury who do web technologies for all kinds of people. It sounded quite a lot like the stuff I was doing with the Open Learning Unit during my year out. The group is a small close-knit team and so they want the woman at the agency (who worked with them for a year) to meet with each of the applicants before-hand to make sure they're the right sort of person for the job.

I'm not getting my hopes up or counting my chickens before they hatch (this is, after-all, the first job I have applied for so far) but it does sound like exactly the sort of thing I'm looking for. I'd much rather work with a small group of people than a big faceless corporation. Plus it's in Newbury, so there won't be any commuting (and all the related costs and stress that comes with it) required.

Here's hoping...
