So I received a reply from the agency I contacted yesterday evening.
They liked my c.v. but wanted to check that I realised it wasn't a project management job, because otherwise I seemed to be a "perfect" match.
Not a problem at all ....
... I have a telephone interview with their client next week.
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.

Heartening
Sometimes I feel it will be hard to get another job in Munich without good German.
This is a bit bizarre because:
- with a bit of practise I actually have good German (the problem is that here in Germany there is little chance to practise it)
- I've already had five jobs in Germany
- and just today I called one agency (via a contact), another called me about a possible contract and I also applied for a job seen on GULP. All in English.

Top tip for monsters
A friend of mine, unbidden, suggested that I amend my details, specifically my c.v. on Monster.
It was her experience that the mere updating resulted in more phone calls.
I need more phone calls from agencies.
Let's see what happens.
Unfurloughed
Last night I received a message that the furlough has been lifted and I should resume work this morning.
Which I will.
But I am concerned about what has happened in the last two weeks. If they could proceed without me (and the others) then I can't see how we can add value now.
If they couldn't proceed then the programme will now be in a very serious situation.
During the furlough I couldn't find many (or indeed any) suitable jobs but I must continue looking.
