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.

Chartered

I'm a chartered engineer, IT professional and a couple of other things.

On my last day at work I gave my business card to one of my (German) colleagues.

On it is written "Chartered IT Professional".

She thought that was funny. But surely Germans rave about letters and titles?

But she read "chartered" as in a "chartered flight".

Hmm.

I am going to buy new business cards. Not sure now whether to leave that in.
