Hi all
I thought there was a real job crisis out there. We put an ad in the Belfast Telegraph, Sunday Life and couple of local papers last week. Office Manager job. Good pay (£30k a year). We have only had 4 enquiries for it. Strange. Was sort of expecting to be wading through 50 CVs at this stage.
Has the whole thing turned around?
:o
Well for anyone that would be interested let me know and I will direct you to the advert online. In Cookstown Co Tyrone BTW. Interest in someone with GSOH and a non smoker.
Who buys newspapers any more?

Did you place the advert in the dating section?
Try Irelands Own.
I know that we (Cookstown also) have been advertising for quite a few jobs lately; and generally speaking it is difficult enough to get them filled.
I assume that the applicant has a high list of qualifications to bring. This may put off a lot of borderline applicants.
Unemployment in the North is 6.5%.
6-7 people out of every 100 is very low IMO
Compared to the late 70's/early 80's when employment was as high as 17-18%, then things are actually quite good, although pay may not be as high as we would like.

Its not though, I actually thought we were underselling the job with the advert. It just basically GCSE passes and experience at working in a busy office, good experience with Microsoft Office. Not too bad like. No management degrees or anything needed.
