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.

Even more evil

So, I emailed the company which should know better's technical support.

And they were prompt, acknowledged my email and forwarded it to the recruiting team.

Who were equally as prompt and asked me for the reference to the job advert in question.

Good. Nice experience.

But when I reply to them the email is bounced by their internal systems (it seems the address given is an alias and the real address is not valid).

Bad. Not nice experience.

So, I've sent another email to their technical support.

Part of me thinks this doesn't bode well.

Once after an interview I was knocked down by a bus. A big red London one. I was only grazed but should have taken it as an omen. I didn't, got the job and it turned out to be the worst company for whom I have ever worked.

So, I'm now worried when things don't go well.

Anyway for now I'm persevering.

But if they make it too hard to apply, or I suffer calamitous accidents during the selection process, then I will withdraw my application.

Oh dear honey. I don't know the bus story.
