    Got another interview today after only being in this job for around 3 months.

    There are 2 posts being advertised. Will be extremely hard though to get anything as 2 temporary staff have been doing the job being advertised for the past year and they have gone for it too.

    How the **** am I going to pull this one off?

    When they ask "Why should you get the job & not the other applicants?"

    Tell them the agency from whom the temporary staff have come from will be entitled to a pay off should one of the get the job, sometimes up to 20% of the salary. Work out how much that is say, £5000 & give them 5 different things they could do with that £5000 budget.

    2.5million paperclips, 18 new colour printers......

    The 2 'temporary' staff actually work in those precise jobs now that are being advertised. Their contracts are up soon and wont require a pay out!

    ****s.

    Just bullshit the interview, I went for 3 promotions in my old job and never got one of them because of my stupid ****ing honesty. Each time I got hijacked by some arse licking halfwit who was nowhere near as good as me, they just knew how to suck cock. Hard work and integrity means absolutely **** all when it comes to these kind of things.

    This is how I got my job. Theres a lot to be said for being a fake as **** bum-licker. People in management positions like nothing more than getting their ego and balls stroked.

    Its a ****ing joke, they really need to get a life. I noticed quickly in this job there was none of that. Everyone seems straight up and honest, its only when high up senior management positions are going when the internal backstabbing starts. When I got promoted it was mentioned in my pay review letter, no interview or anything. Just a handshake and a letter. I actually remember having to "alt + tab" 606 off my screen when my boss approached. Fully deserved eh?

    Yeah, the guy I report to on the beach (who isn't my boss but the liason for the Oil company) is one of these ****s. You have to bum-lick him or he'll backstab you. Same in the office onshore for my company. The good thing about being a vendor offshore rather than working for the company who owns the platform is that you don't really need to get involved in office politics.

    Generally the only problems out here is that it gets a bit like being back at school with all the wee cliques of mates who bum each other up and do each other favours all the time.

    Muir - it wont matter if there contract is up they'll still have to the pay agency. There are rules in place to stop people walking from a n agency & then returning to their job direct with the employer.

    Just keep focussing all your answers on the job you'll be doing, you should have a form with the job duties on. Remember to use examples from your current job & how they relate to what you will be doing should you get it.

    My Dad is in a big clique of mates who all get each other some cushy contracts. They're all littered around the world but they keep in touch and always do favours for each other. I know most of them pretty well so looking forward to getting plugged into that clique. The Camerons Cartel I call it.

    I bet you've got some mates that managed to sort you out with some work, especially if you've done some jobs in West Africa.
