Title: Sam Post by: Power to people on Thursday, June 5, 2008, 16:04:56 Sod working in a school...anyway the money on offer there is crap
Title: Sam Post by: Simon Pieman on Thursday, June 5, 2008, 16:46:51 Bet it's piss easy work with other benefits though.
Title: Sam Post by: Samdy Gray on Thursday, June 5, 2008, 16:54:01 Quote from: "Power to people" ...anyway the money on offer there is crap Not for a first job in IT with no experience though. Title: Sam Post by: Samdy Gray on Thursday, June 5, 2008, 16:59:03 Oh, and ofcourse there'd be 12 weeks holiday a year :D
Title: Sam Post by: jayohaitchenn on Thursday, June 5, 2008, 17:11:03 You might find that salary is pro rata though, so if you have your 12 weeks holiday you will be paid considerably less.
www.jobserve.co.uk, look at contract jobs and blag your way in! Title: Sam Post by: Simon Pieman on Thursday, June 5, 2008, 17:14:18 I don't think you'll get the 12 weeks holiday. If you look at the other positions it says pro-rata and 'term-time' instead of full-time.

I get an annual salary of x amount and get all the holidays 8) Title: Sam Post by: Fred Elliot on Thursday, June 5, 2008, 22:26:34 Quote from: "Power to people" Sod working in a school...anyway the money on offer there is crap Thanks for your encouraging support :mrgreen: Title: Sam Post by: sonic youth on Thursday, June 5, 2008, 22:35:15 sam - i think there is a job going at our place, if you're interested i can find out details. it'd be one hell of a trek from swindon everyday though, you could pick me up on the way mind

Title: Sam Post by: Samdy Gray on Friday, June 6, 2008, 08:43:56 Cheers Jimbo, but the salary would be a bit too low for me when taking the travelling costs into account.
Title: Sam Post by: Power to people on Friday, June 6, 2008, 08:50:05 Quote from: "Samdy Gray" Quote from: "Power to people" ...anyway the money on offer there is crap Not for a first job in IT with no experience though. Hell yes, for a first IT job you do not want to be going into a school, you want to be going into an office where you are likely to learn and gain experience from the more experienced techies, and they are prepared to send you on courses to help you learn. Title: Sam Post by: Sippo on Friday, June 6, 2008, 09:00:06 Excuse me ptop. My school here wil lend me on courses. Anyone that does apply for that job would enjoy it and beleive you me the benefits are ace. And my junior learns hell of a lot of me.
Title: Sam Post by: Samdy Gray on Friday, June 6, 2008, 09:10:45 Quote from: "Power to people" Hell yes, for a first IT job you do not want to be going into a school, you want to be going into an office where you are likely to learn and gain experience from the more experienced techies, and they are prepared to send you on courses to help you learn. Who says you wouldn't learn in a school based techie role? Anyway, the way I see it is they're offering a fairly good salary without the applicant needing specific experience or qualifications. For a similar salary in an 'office' based role I'd bet you'd need a minimum of 12 months experience and all sorts of specific qualifications. Title: Sam Post by: Sippo on Friday, June 6, 2008, 09:12:24 Sam, PM me if you need reassurance. I think you should go for it as I wouldn't have posted it. And its easy to get to. :)
Title: Sam Post by: Samdy Gray on Friday, June 6, 2008, 09:13:22 I'll definitely go for it, I've got nothing to lose.
Title: Sam Post by: Sippo on Friday, June 6, 2008, 09:14:46 Good lad, that role is good pay considering my techie is only on £14k.

Depends what your future prospects are going to be. I've only just got myself onto average graduate salary and I graduated 2 years ago. However, by the time I qualify (if I ever do) I will be earning more than double what I started on.

However, by the time I qualify (if I ever do) I will be earning more than double what I started on. yes that it true, but i dont think i'd be able to cope with anything remotley less than what im on, obviously if they said we'll start you on 15,000 and after a year it wil be 30,000 then yes' id jump at that offer. Title: Sam Post by: Simon Pieman on Friday, June 6, 2008, 19:55:20 If you're earning good money now then I wouldn't moan too much mate. Some people are stuck in what they would consider dead end jobs and earning minimum wage.
Title: Sam Post by: Simon Pieman on Friday, June 6, 2008, 19:56:16 Failing that pretend that management took the Michael out of your Polish heritage and sue the company for racial discrimination :D
Title: Sam Post by: Chubbs on Friday, June 6, 2008, 20:00:07 haha, its hardly good money, but it'so ok.
Title: Sam Post by: Samdy Gray on Thursday, June 19, 2008, 17:59:32 Woot! Got an interview!
Title: Sam Post by: Sippo on Friday, June 20, 2008, 08:30:00 Well done mate! If you have any questions you know where I am.
