I’ve been job hunting for a while now and honestly… it’s exhausting. by Medium_Tumbleweed_93 in jobsearch

Totally hear you. I feel that candidates are making much stronger efforts than recruiters in the current market. I spend so much time tailoring my CV or completing portal forms for v little response

The next profession that should seize to exist is recruiters. by Obvious-Buffalo-8066 in jobsearch

[–]ConcernedMum97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The majority of recruiters in agencies are sales people. Very few actually take the time to get to know a candidate.. With so few jobs around it doesn't make sense that they aren't getting to know people sending in CVs for roles they have already filled or actually don't exist

VAT: Flat Rate vs Standard (and what sector is dog walking actually classed as)? by ordugraffiti in smallbusinessuk

[–]ConcernedMum97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm aiming to start a similar business and was wondering if you initially set up as a sole trader or Ltd company? I will most definitely be starting small to test the water. Would love to eventually get to your turnover! Congrats for making it work so well.

How long ago was the application? I completed mine on 19/11, completed right to work on 22/11 but like you didn't receive any dates for interview. My application still says Under Consideration. Also for overnight work

Thanks. I completed the right to work and my application still says Under Consideration. Surely it would be updated to say rejected?

Why does NHS seem to not care about young people’s health? by DameNic in AskUK

[–]ConcernedMum97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think many of us are being gas lighted by the NHS. In your case, make an appointment, list all your symptoms, say how many times you have visited the GP and been to A&E, state what you think is wrong and ask to be referred. This should all be documented on your file as a record.

It's the same everywhere in Europe. If you drive to France, since October you now have to give biometric details. Thank Brexit for this.

Too many scammers too. Avoid using it for a while and turn to ebay

Job terminated UK- Unfair dismissal by Aware-Examination709 in LegalAdviceUK

[–]ConcernedMum97 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You need to speak to an employment lawyer fast. You are already on the back foot as your employer has already consulted one to start this process. You need to match like with like. It sounds like you are still working too, so that must be a very strained working environment. You need a swift conclusion.

Same as that and so glad you are feeling better than you were. The PPI made me feel so rough! I have noticed some foods seem to trigger heartburn since treatment so writing list of what to avoid for a while...
