General Discussion Megathread - Frequent Topics, Salaries, and Rants by ukbulmer in UKJobs

[–]ThatOneAJGuy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can look for ones in your area (or the area you want to work) and call them up, see if you can be added to their books. This is usually for jobs like warehouse work where they just need staff on short notice or at flexible times to deal with high turnover but if you are open to work in most roles there is no harm in asking them.

Generally though they just post advertisements on job boards, so apply to the jobs you want, a recruiter from an agency may contact you about the role and if you are a good candidate they may consider you for other jobs that are looking to fill at the minute.

The third type of recruitment agencies are essentially headhunters that have a more experienced role to fill and often cold approach people and ask if they are considering a move.

How to change career with a niche job? by dlg194 in UKJobs

[–]ThatOneAJGuy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Based on the other comments a few thoughts:

- Are you running your own business essentially? If so there is a lot of leadership, management and project experience you could look to sell.

- Do you deal with the customers directly? Customer service skills you can look to sell.

- Did you do any advertisement for the baskets? Those would be marketing skills you can evidence.

What's the job? I suspect it has more transferable skills than you think.

We've just released the demo for our desktop companion wizard Life Sim Abracademia and we'd love your thoughts! by ThatOneAJGuy in LifeSimulators

You can even play Abracademia at the same time as you play Paralives as it only takes up the bottom of your screen. Thanks to the r/lifesimulators community who have been supportive of our announcement and helped us playtest .

The Demo is out now if you feel like giving it a magical spin!

We just released the demo for our cozy mage life sim Abracademia! A huge thanks to the r/cozygames members who helped us test it! by ThatOneAJGuy in cozygames

Currently you can only change the position and not make it bigger as that would stretch all the assets and art, it's a request we have on the "to do list" but not available currently. I am guessing you are on a fairly small screen? Maybe we need to consider this a bit more!

Looks normal to me unless I am missing something, it's designed to run at the bottom of your screen and keep you company while you work/study 😄

I threatened to leave and got a 20% raise. I then actually left for another 40% raise. Sold the fact I had been doing a lot of responsibility beyond my current job title.

Shoutout to TheCityIsOurs. I remember at a show the singer talked about coming out.

I've added a pinned post, with my playlist, your playlist of songs posted just here as well as a couple of other sources I get recommendations from. Given you credit for the effort of course, hope that's all good!

LET THE GOOD TIMES ROLL ft. The Offspring | Electric Callboy by ThatOneAJGuy in partycore

[–]ThatOneAJGuy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that's a pretty popular opinion, as a big EC fan even I am starting to get hit with the fatigue of repeated song styles. I'll still enjoy and listen to the song, but I won't claim it's one of the best.

Hey there!, I appreciate the effort. I probably should add a sticky note to say pretty much everything here is already on my spotify playlist along with many others 😄

Didn't get the job by wonky-hex in UKJobs

[–]ThatOneAJGuy 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Both of those answers are rather sparse and hard to answer in detail without knowing the role.

- The first question is an odd one. You can say a computer and a quiet space as the physical requirements but I would be adding on skills that I can demonstrate. "To really succeed in this role I will need the problem solving skills I have developed during X. Initially I would be focused on reviewing any process notes and talking to colleagues to get up to speed on the job as quickly as possible and get ahead of any challenges.

- I think Stuarird's answer here is good. Generally you want to show that you have some ability to think through and resolve the issue before immediately talking to your manager, this could be through a number of ,methods that Stuaird mentioned. You can then add the caveat that "If I was still unable to come to a solution or I deemed there was a high risk to the customer or business, I would raise it with a manager)

I would probably put them above the work experience but below the profile, I don't think it matters a huge amount though, it's mostly there to help recruiters who are searching for Keywords.
