Had an informal interview this morning to go back to work in the hospital I worked in before dds were born. (seven and a half years ago!) Had to do a typing test which was fine and then had an informal chat.
Sounds perfect. I will be working on the bank covering for secretarial and clerical staff as and when needed. They will offer me hours to work and I can say yes or no. Brilliant.

Thanks.
Fimbo yes I did get a job as doctor's receptionist but only stayed for a week. They started swapping my hours around and I couldnt fit around that. Handed in my notice. Shame cos I enjoyed it.
Am looking foward to going back to my old place of work though.

Alibaldi - I keep seeing your name around and keep thinking about Colorado. Dh and I so want to live out there - we've been trying so hard for the last 3/4 years without success

What does DH do Sparkler? Know what you do now . Let me know and perhaps there would be something i could do to help. More than willing to try.

DH is a senior software engineer. The only way you could help is to get us a visa. Every year they run out before we have chance to do anything.

You need to find the company first, get a recruitment agency in Boulder/Denver and then get company sponsored H got his visa in two months. H1B too. Listen will start trawling will also ask h for you too.
