Re: Second Interview
Thanks for all the well wishes, i have now returned to the UK afetr a good 5 days in London, Ont. Thanks to Tom M and his wife for their hospitality whilst over there.
Job i/v update - spread over two days and with 6 different people interviewing I think it went well. I have made it to the final 2 ( its between me and a guy from Quebec who is haveing his final i/v on Jan 2nd ) so should know something shortly after that.
Finally got to know what generally the package is - sal range between $75k - $100k pa, start on 25 days holiday, flexible working hours of 40 hours pw and profit sharing where available. Forgot to ask about health and pension ( you always think of these things while you are walking back afterwards clutching a Timmy's in your hand don't yer eh ? ).
So having found all that out and liking what I saw of London ( its not shrangri-la .... it has its problems but its a very livable city ) I will be sorely pissed if the froggy type bloke from Quebec pips me at the final post.
Catch you all after xmas and have a great holiday season everyone.
Paul.

Re: Second Interview
Well Done, Keep fingers crossed and here's hoping for next year eh!
Sounds like a good package. I would imagine that if they are going to pay at that level and give you the vacation time you would also get a reasonable pension and health care benefits. Health care especially seems to be readily given out as part of employment package.
Have a good Christmas.

Re: Second Interview
Paul, that sounds very promising. An excellent package too.
Hope you hear good news soon.
If the other guy gets it, find out where he lives and we'll send someone over to jump up and down on him!
Enjoy your Christmas, it maybe the last one here for a while.

If you see a Quebec licensed car with the indicator flashing, it was probably bought in that condition.
Q: Why do they not allow "lottery type" promotions on products in Quebec?
A: Cos they would never get the "skill testing" question right anyway.
Sorry, what? that request for stupid generalisations was sarchasm?, I guess anyone can make a mistake in interpretting how something is intended on a text based forum then
Lighten up mate, have a beer

I hope you don't mind me bumping this, but I was just wondering if you've heard yet. I hope it's good news if so!
