Plans are shaping up to be a permenant domestic-executive. I've had three attempts to get permanent work - I fell at the first hurdle on one (no interview), stumbled with another (long listed but not shortlisted) and finally made it to the tape on the third strike (interview - preferred candidate status).
This whole recruitment experience has finally confirmed what I've instinctively known is that to go back to being a permenant corporate executive is the not right thing to do. I know friends and family expect for me to be lured back - and to be honest for a few moments it was a close run thing. But, with some luck, continued good performance and some cany negotiation I'll be able to negotiate a contract that will suit my needs best.
But that's not for this week - I need a break away from all this pressure. My more immediate worry is where I can find my summer shorts in the many still packed boxes as I'll need them for my winter sun trip away this weekend.
About Me
- Domestic Executive
- I ran away from the UK to find a new life in New Zealand. The dream was to build a house in the country and run a business working from home. Two years after our arrival we're realising that dream - the house is built and business is underway. Just need to get rid of the gorse and thistles, create the kitchen garden, build the hen house .... the list goes on! Oh, did I mention we've got two basset hounds which was also part of the plan to live thr rural life.
