      Just came home from a job interview, some know, I finish school this Summer.
      They said everything sounds good, now I need the GO! from the management and we can talk about the final details like the house where I have to work (we have 4), 30 or 39 hours a week and if I start with paylevel 1 or 2, they said I should get level 2 because I work there for the last 2,5 years beside school.
      Hope I´ll get the response ASAP (because I just wrote that one application haha)

                                @spitfiredealer start looking for a job now. The market in the UK tends to be buoyant in April / May with the new financial year, and will pick up once the election is out of the way.

                                Sorry to hear about your woes, and good luck finding a new one. 🙂

                                  Bad luck old chap! Be strong dude, you will get through it and it may turn out to be a blessing.

                                  Graeme is right. Best to start looking right away. If i were you i would do the following:

                                  1. get in touch with any contacts that may be hiring/interested in hiring.

                                  2. get your cv up to date and contact a few agencies /distribute to key contacts.

                                  3. check your contract of employment with current employer to see what your rights are and whether they are in breach of their obligations! I know you say that they have shut down but worth checking once you have got the above sorted.

                                  Good luck dude!

                                    Sure it sucks, but it could be a new chance @spitfiredealer stay postive.

                                      Been on the phone most of the day with contacts at other places so hopefully that will help.

                                      Going to get the CV updated tomorrow.

                                      Redundancy payments are being sorted by some third party company so will be the bare minimal i would expect.

                                      I am a big believer in everything happens for a reason so hopefully this will lead to something new and better.
                                      Just not came a great time with the baby coming. But hey ho shit happens

                                      @Megatron1505 i will be in need of a large home brew at fish n' chips!

                                        I've not got much useful advice, other than keep the CV concise, but best of luck to you…  And good luck with the baby, too.

                                          Horrible mate. Hold your head high, it's not a you thing, rather the company. Get out there and apply for jobs day in/out. Take a day or two (not too long) to get the CV in line then go go go!

                                            As others have said, get your CV in order and get it out to as many professional agencies as possible. Scour Monster and other sites and stay positive. I've been through a similar situation and the quicker you make finding a job your job (horrible cliche I know) the better you feel.

                                            Above all, sorry you're in this situation mate….I'll bring you extra booze to F&C  🙂
