Is there anything we can help with?

2 interviews out of 12 isn't bad - have you already had them or are they coming up?

Not nay help as such just need a sounding board. Have got the interviews on 4th and 9 September which seems a long time away! Checking my emails like crazy for more interviews!

Every time I go to give my notice in I can't do it. I'm so desparate

What do you have in the way of savings if you resign now without a new job to go to? Are there possibilities for temping in your line of work?

Faye12345 · 27/08/2015 19:22

My OH earns a decent wage but not enough for two for long. I have two months notice period and 5 grand savings. I could do temp work as needed but my confidence is so shot I doubt I could handle it

If it's making you so miserable, leave but what are the issues? Is it a staff member? Lack of training? External issues affecting your work?

Could you at least go to a temp agency and ask for feedback on your cv and the likelihood of you getting regular temp work?

Faye12345 · 27/08/2015 21:02

It's the context and workload. The job is way above my level of competency and ice hated it since day one a year ago. I just want someone to tell me what to do

presumably your cv is up to date so book a day's holiday and go round the temp agencies and ask them for honest feedback. Then hand round your notice in if it's positive. What's your notice period?

Its two months. Ive got two job interviews lined up but only interested in one of them x
