An Englishman heads to New Zealand

Since my last posting, yours truly has attended his first job interview in Aotearoa. The job search is definitely moving up a gear, which can only be a good thing. What with the British Pound currently paddling to stay afloat against the Kiwi Dollar, I need to start earning the local shekels pronto!

Not only did I have an interview on Wednesday just gone, but I have another one with a different company lined up for Monday. So, at the very least, muggins here seems to have an attractive CV. Which is nice!

And not only that dear readers… I have a very suave and sophisticated suit to match. While walking to the interview in Ponsonby the other day, I like to think I resembled Daniel Craig playing James Bond. However, I was probably more akin to Mr Benn mincing down the road in sheer excitement as to what crazy adventure he was about to embark on in the fancy-dress shop!

We shall see what comes of the interview I had the other day. At the very least, I felt I gave a good account of myself, and now have another iron in the fire too. Whatever comes of it, it’s all positive and very definitely a step in the right direction, and has really given me a boost to my confidence and self-esteem by knowing that my skills and experience seem to be attractive to Kiwi employers. I know NZ is where I want to be, and where I want to pursure me sweet ‘lil dreams… a job is required to start off. Boring I know, but a blooming necessity.

Onwards and upwards… just as the mighty Tottenham Hotspur are doing as we speak! “Spurs are on their way to Wembley… Tottenham gonna do it again…”
