to apply for job on behalf of DH.

[pamelat]

I am on maternity leave, 11 months in.

DH is being made redundant and has compiled his CV. He has asked me to search for vacancies.

I have been doing this and emailing them to him.

Despite leaving work soon, he is busy.

Do you think its bad to apply on his behalf online?

Its his own CV, its just that one of the jobs had a personality tick box thingy and I clicked as though I were him, but then realised that perhaps a bit naughty as I am not him

He doesnt mind but is it bad?

No. Is it any worse than if you were sitting with him and discussing his answers? All's fair in love, war and job-hunting. He can't take you into the interview with him, anyway.

Thank you, I have stopped at a point where they want a test carried out online (I think he would be better than me at it!)

My dh lost his job in June. I applied for loads of jobs on his behalf and screened the rejections because he was feeling low already. It worked well -- he got a much better job and everyone is happier. Good luck!

Pamelat, you have the time, he doesn't. I see no reason why you shouldn't help - I did the same when my DP was looking for work. You are partners, he's lucky to have you available to help. If he's happy with that, go for it - and best of luck to you both !

I've applied for loads on dh's behalf. I haven't done full blown personality test type things though. Only the general stuff where it doesn't really matter who is sitting in front of the pc.

I will contine you then, thanks (will leave off tests etc)

His last day will be my first day back at work! I think he is worried that he will have care of DD (hard work!), we cant afford nursery if he isn't working but he says he needs to have the days free to look for work, have said we could do that for a month or so but not long term

Unfortunately or fortunately (?) it is already agreed that I am going back part time, that can no longer be changed.
