Well here we are. 14 months later, approaching 30 applications and 4 interviews...…day number 1. Words cannot express how this feels after losing my job last March as a result of the pandemic.
I am not writing this for my self glorification but to publicly thank every single person who has contributed to the thread, amongst them several "old hands" who provide such great words of wisdom - you know who you are and I cannot thank you enough. And for the recent joiners of this excellent forum...… heed every word of advice from established members, not least read every single page and use the search facility. And do not be despondent at failure, keep trying and learn from your mistakes - if you seriously want a signalling job, never ever give up.
