    Hi all,

    After a tough interview last week, I have been offered and accepted a 3rd line role with the NHS. I'm very excited and cannot believe my luck :D The role ticks all the boxes for the next stage of my career.

    So it's goodbye Private Sector, hello Public Sector (again!).

    Cheers :p

    That’s funny. The public sector said they would start kicking and screaming if you worked for them again. :)

    Congrats bro.

    I notice most people don't tend to log on outside work hours, but the congrats are there from all of us, obviously.

    Thanks guys! It's more money and of course a step up in the technology side of things! They are also some 'personal' aspects too so I'm quite glad of stuff working out the way it has!

    At the end of the day, public sector or private sector, a job is what you make it!

    Public Sector is great, if you get the right staff / management around you, but it's very much dog eat dog and everyone being there own little team, failing to communicate etc etc and I am jumping ship before the ship sinks
