Any spare vibes floating around? Update.

OB, 12 September, 2013 at 12:49 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 59

H has been for a second interview today. It went well but he'd been given the impression he would get an offer there and then, and there wasn't one. They did say they would be in touch.

If he got it he would go from working 9-8 every day and every other weekend to working 8-4.30 in the week and only 2 Saturdays a year. It would be a dream.

If anyone has any spare vibes for a nice big fat offer that would be great. I know there are much more important things going on but my H works so hard and it would be so lovely for him to finally have a good job along with good working hours. He's been running himself into the ground for the last 2 years at this job.

Update!

He's been offered the job verbally, but has to wait for the offer to come through Monday or Tuesday to find out any details (inc salary!!)! I'm very proud of him, but it also sort of feels like a bit of an anticlimax.

Thanks for all the vibes anyway, they really are fab Smiley smile

    Thanks everyone! Really appreciate them Smiley smile

    I'm resisting the urge to ring him and ask if he's heard anything. He said he would ring me if he did but I know how forgetful he is!

    Do you know how many others were called for a second interview OB?

    ER - I presume a new job may mean your H has to live at home!?

    We were under the impression that the woman didn't like anyone else they had seen and for her H was the only option, but she wanted him to meet the director before anything formal. She actually told him she wanted him in the first interview!

    That does sound really positive, did he meet said director at this interview? Hopefully this meeting was just that and was just to get his stamp on it, and they'll be in touch soon.

    Yeah he spent about an hour with him. He took him on a tour of the place and talked him through the business. Also explained company pension and things like that so I'm hopeful! Just hate the limbo!!

    Thanks for the vibes everyone Smiley smile

    It's back to stock control, which is what he loves doing. The company make signs, I think it's like the big ones you get on shops and stuff.

    The company is growing, and they've outgrown that unit, so they have 2 offsite storage units too, and H would be responsible for all stock. I think it's also purchasing the materials too. They said in the first interview that he would have to go and visit these mills too, there's one in Dublin, one in Venice, and another in Israel.

    The job would mean about £10K more each year, which would mean more money to the ex. I begrudge her getting more money off us, when we don't really need that payrise.

    ATB, it would mean H being at home, haha.

    The main thing, is that H has worked hard to get where he is in his company. If he moves, they will be creating the position for him, which means starting from scratch. He's not totally sold on the idea, as he wants to be going forwards, not back.

    They seem keen to get him, I am just hoping H isn't swayed by the money.

    I know! I was a bit tipsy when I answered too (not very sensible)! They couldn't agree between me and another candidate and were battling it out for ages. I often wonder if I only got the job because I was the one who answered the phone at that time... Not that I care ? Good luck to your H.
