Well ive been hacking away at the market and whats been returned is woeful to say the least. However i did decide to widen my job prefs and i have a chance of being a TV repair man for a well known company that rhymes with vomit lol. If i get a sniff ill take it as i reckon it will be better to go to an IT job whilst already in employment,and in the meantime ill keep looking for IT work.

I have to go for an induction one day and then a days trial the next, if i impress then i get offered a job, only problem is i really havent done much work with TVs, tho i have on the PC side of things. Either way its 2 days of something different.

There are jobs out there just there are loads of applicants. Keep ploughing on with the certs and something will come along.

 

TV repairman , the days of actually fixing such things are long gone so I expect that'll be more of a customer support kind of role, they bring their telly into you, you verify that it does not work and back off to the manufacturer it goes.

Back in [cough,cough] when I first started our company used to repair monitors and things but that was normally for propriety monitors which new were either expensive or unavailable.

Great idea though could be a good lead into your first IT role shows great initiative!

 

Its a good move...would be beneficial when you apply for IT roles as well i think...

 

Well i know i said its for a place thet rhymes with vomit, its an agency for them. Now see i hate agencies as you can get dropped like a sack of spuds whenever they feel like it?? So should oi be worried or just go with the flow ??

Do you currently have a job? nope, so any job is better than none. If they drop you like a stone, are you any worse off than you are right now? Nope, in fact you have more pennies in your pocket as a result. its a win.

Are you stopping looking for IT work whilst you work at the agency? Nope, so really what you are getting is a current entry on your CV, and a steady income until you find an IT job.

Sounds awfully like win-win to me.

 

Ye ive been looking for an IT position for a while now.. spoke to my advisor at college but they basically say without experience it will be tough - not the best advice if you ask me
