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.

... but ultimately disappointing


Although last week I went to an interview in Frankfurt where I wasn't interviewed in a god-damn ice cream parlour today I was called by the agency who told me that they had decided to go internal.

Hmmm, that was not a cheap journey to Frankfurt and is a bit annoying as basically they had already decided.

A different challenge

Yesterday I had an interview for a freelance job in Munich.

Normally I find myself answering questions by explaining that I have the experience in the areas required but not necessarily to the same size.

This time it turns out that their requirements were smaller and less complex than I am used to.
