...I got a job!!!! After 9 weeks of applying for countless amounts of positions, I finally got one
and get this...I didnt even apply for it. This brings me to my point which is, its not what you know, its who you know. My CV is awesome, my personality unparalled, my ability to get a job interview in Finland....non existent. Just as I had given up on getting a job before Christmas, one just landed on my lap. Last Sunday my GF's father told me about a position available and I went down the next day (with his reccommendation) and booooooom....got the job. Ok, my area of expertise is sales and the job i now have is service and maintance but you know what they say...beggers cant be choosers. Needlessless to say I'm over the moon and I wish everybody the best of luck over the Christmas period. Those of you who have a job...keep up the good work....those who dont....patience..all good things come to those who wait

congratulations!
Always nice to hear a success story!
Political correctness is the belief that it's possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

And it is nice to get our standard opinion confirmed.
