A diary based on my latest attempts to get a job; this time in Munich. I'm an engineering graduate (and chartered engineer) with more than 10 years' experience in IT. Over five of these years have been spent in team leading and project management roles both in the UK and abroad.

Reading

Some people speed-read. Some others skim.

I speed-skim.

When I'm scrolling through web pages of job sites I often merely glance at the details. That's all I need to determine whether the job is appropriate or not. But I couldn't tell you the details advertised.

Sometimes I think "why did I ignore that job?". I go back to it and read it with more effort. I always find that I was right to reject it.
