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.

Bite, the first

A few weeks ago, when I was applying for like 25 jobs, I wondered why this was necessary. By now so many agencies have my c.v. there's no need for them to advertise. Just call me first.

Before I got up today, before I got up, my mobile rang.

It was an agency phoning to see if I was available for a contract release management job.

Good rates, for a bank.

Nowadays I don't apply for most release management jobs advertised - there's usually the response that I don't have recent experience.

But as they called me I'm happy to be considered.
