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.

Er, no

I saw an advert a week ago which included:

"... This fantastic opporttunity is within a fashionable and exciting translation company based in the trendy City of Milton Keynes..."

Americans please note that Milton Keynes is as trendy as Kansas City.

By the way, are there any Americans still reading this? I hope so. And if, by chance, some of them are from KC I'd apologise but I guess they'd agree.

A few years ago I visited KC as I was employed by an international energy company headquartered there. Despite working with many Americans based in the States it's actually my only visit to the USA.
