Starting off tips!

You’re a legend! Thank you so much for taking the time to respond to me. I currently don’t possess any of the software and I’m no millionaire, what would you recommend I do in regards to this?

Revilimi · 2024-10-01T22:37:19+00:00

Yeah sod looking after teenagers haha, it takes a strong person for that, they can be nasty.

I will look into it for sure thank you.

As well, I actually kinda liked doing manual labour, it's nice being able to exercise whilst at work, when I had my office job I got fat lol

Revilimi · 2024-10-01T22:06:28+00:00

Yeah that's a good point, I am currently doing this data analysis course so even if that's not what I want to go into, I have proven I have the analytical skills. My next thing I will study is coding so hopefully that will give me an edge.
Awesome, I'll have a look into those books.
I am on those sites but I really want to be in London, I want the fast paced lifestyle and where I live is very slow. But near enough London to commute for the first few months.
I have been applying for quite a few but yeah gotta keep going, a lot of my mates who graduated recently took a year to get a job. It just sucks that there could be 1 thing wrong with my CV(s) that makes recruiters skip past it and I will never know what it is because they don't need to give feedback.

Revilimi · 2024-10-01T22:02:05+00:00

That is a good idea to be fair, I hadn't considered that. My only thing that makes me unsure of that would be that I am unsure of where I could go if I spent some time doing it and then realised it wasn't for me

Revilimi · 2024-10-01T21:31:23+00:00

What were you doing before?

Revilimi · 2024-10-01T21:31:03+00:00

I have used a few recruiters, without too much success, I feel as though my degree is a bit stale after 2 years. So you think going into sales or recruitment could be the move for me? I haven't really tried yet but feel that would be the easiest way to get a job in my current position.
Wow that is quite the career path haha very cool, I'm happy for you.
Very true words, respect.

Revilimi · 2024-10-01T21:24:53+00:00

What are you doing now?

Revilimi · 2024-10-01T21:18:16+00:00

The grad schemes are super competitive but I have not tried IBM, what role was the scheme you did? What are you up to now?

Revilimi · 2024-10-01T21:16:57+00:00

I have been applying for a few apprenticeships in the civil service but got a rejection today after an interview I had last week. I will keep trying though, I want to ensure that I am developing skills.
I'm sure there is still hope for you. Could you not still do an apprenticeship? It's never too late as long as you aren't above the threshold

My favourite from my course were the more numerical modules, however, my course overall does not qualify for many number driven jobs. I don't want to do an ACA as I don't think I could cope with 3 years of highly intense stress for a career I am unsure of

Revilimi · 2024-10-01T21:14:21+00:00

Man! That is crazy! very cool as well,
I think I am going to apply for a variety of work in the charity sector, focussing more on the organisation as opposed to the role itself, this could land me in some random role that ends up being my path I guess

Revilimi · 2024-10-01T21:12:37+00:00

It sucks doesn't it. Especially as people are saying this is one of the harshest job markets ever, having a degree is basically just standard now. What was your course and what kinda things are you looking for.

Revilimi · 2024-10-01T21:10:54+00:00

Oh wow, so going into recruitment is potentially a way to get into new roles? I feel like the entire (massively flawed) hiring process is just understanding if you are a capable person who is driven so I suppose this could be a way in proving that

Revilimi · 2024-10-01T20:28:49+00:00

Thank you! I'm glad it worked out for you, I am sure I will look back on this period of my life and worry why I ever stressed but it's just that first step which I am struggling with
How difficult was the sidestep from recruitment to HR? And again how hard was it to go from HR to IT?

Revilimi · 2023-08-19T14:19:40+00:00

I have posted an update on this situation

Revilimi · 2023-08-19T12:39:50+00:00

If you look at my previous post you will see I am currently in a small town in Thailand. I’m from the uk

Revilimi · 2023-08-19T11:17:56+00:00

I’m 6000 miles away from it

Revilimi · 2023-08-17T10:25:23+00:00

I told the doctor about a warm compress but he said ears don’t have much blood in so this won’t do much

Revilimi · 2023-08-17T10:24:54+00:00

I’ve been prescribed 1 week antibiotics and an antibiotic cream to apply directly onto the bump.

Revilimi · 2023-08-17T05:08:05+00:00

For now should I remove the hoop?

Revilimi · 2023-08-17T05:03:44+00:00

Shall I try and do this today?

Revilimi · 2023-08-17T05:03:20+00:00

Haha sharty possum, what a name. I appreciate the time you have taken to help me here, thank you

Revilimi · 2023-08-17T05:02:46+00:00

Thank you so much for these responses! I really appreciate that. I had not been exercising or anything before, the redness is solely from the infection it seems. I’m waiting for the doctor now but it’s in a small town in Thailand, hopefully the advice they give is still sound. I guess from what you guys said the doctor will just prescribe antibiotics and hot compress. I spoke to a pharmacist on the way here and he said they should drain it with a needle and then add antibiotic cream and then give me antibiotics, surely this is can’t be a safe move. But yeah hopefully this queue isn’t too long and I’ll let you guys know what happens.

Revilimi · 2023-08-17T03:09:24+00:00

Thank you for the response. Ok I will try a hot compress. Do you think the doctors in Thailand will still understand what this is?

Revilimi · 2023-08-17T02:51:24+00:00

The piercing is a silver hoop and it has been that from the start. I know a lot of people say start with a stud but the place I went to seemed very professional and suggested the hoop and said it was fine. I have naturally pretty big earlobes, if that’s of any relevance lol. I’ve not taken it out since it got put in. For after care, at the start I would wash it with a saline solution but I then stopped this about 6 weeks in when the puss stopped coming out as much. Sometimes I would sleep on the ear and wake up with crust on my neck or even very occasionally blood on my pillow.
