Re: Too Scared To Get Excited
I know a fair bit about recruiting having worked as a recruiting consultant.
Chances are they wouldn't bother interviewing someone at the other side of the world unless they were REALLY interested and had no particularly suitable applicants in Britain.
Just tell him to relax and be confident and he will get the job easily, without a doubt.
Start packing!

Re: Too Scared To Get Excited
Thanks all, and those who sent karma
We are putting together his visa application today ready to post off.
I am also trying to get more info on the wider area near to the facility in Ticehurst, so we can focus on where we would prefer to live if it came off. Quite difficult when you dont know the area at all and are so far away.
I was trying to use the Up My Street website, but it is incredibly slow for some reason, and some pages wont load.
Does anyone know of similar sites to find out in depth info on living in certain areas?

the local newspaper
local estate agents
local district/borough council (maybe county council too)
parents' assocations
womens/mens groups (try national womens register, if you get contact details off there they are usually quite knowledgeable people)/charities
Those should give you quite a breadth of knowledge about the area? Good luck to yr OH with the interview

Re: Too Scared To Get Excited
I just saw this thread Flea! All movable appendages are crossed for your OH. Good luck. (I interviewed and got offered my job over the phone before I came back, so I know it's possible.)

Re: Too Scared To Get Excited
I am trying to contain myself at the moment. After all the bad luck and disappointment we have had in the last year, I dont want to get my hopes up too much, BUT...
OH got a phone call from London last night. It was the recruiters for the East Sussex job he applied for. She said they are so keen on him they want to do a telephone interview on the 18th December
And even better, it is for the more senior role in acute psychiatry!
Please, please, please, let this happen. I think we deserve a break.
Can you all cross your fingers for us?
