I've been employed in my current role 21 months and I am aware of my employment rights once I hit the 24 month mark.
For reasons based upon personal experience I want to work for an university.
Today I had an interview at a university for a 12 month contractual role. My initial thoughts were I'll go for interview practice, however I really do like the sound of the role.
The interviewer explained that the search for funding is a continuum, as they gain funding so everyone's role continues.
A friend who works at the same university in an unrelated role suggested all one needs to do is get their foot in the door, once employed, there is a wealth of job opportunities available to you and personnel move around all the time, I'm not to let the 'contractual' element put me off.
Yes, I have a mortgage and three kids so it's not a decision to be taken lightly.
It'll be more money and closer to home.
I appreciate your thoughts.
