So to update you guys...

Had the interview and basically smashed it out park. It was basically Germany Brazil 7-1 levels of quality with the only blip being two of the answers to the technical questions I gave weren't as smooth as I wanted.

Fast forward to today, recruiter said that the interviewer loved me and whilst they still had a few more people to interview today, i was guaranteed a second stage interview. At this point I'm really happy and head back to work. 20 minutes later i get a text from him asking me to call him back but I'm under the kish with it being month end. So i check my personal email at lunchtime and he sent an email saying they want to see me again, tomorrow if possible.

So I speak on the phone to him about half an hour later and he says the woman who interviewed me was raving about me, how great i was to the financial controller so whilst i am waiting for email confirmation I have my second stage interview tomorrow morning at 8:30am booked and if this goes well I think I should have a job offer lined up already and still have over a month and a half to go of my notice period. Also the job is exactly the role I wanted and the company is in multiple countries so hopefully serious progression will be possible within the next 3-5 years as long as I work hard.

Will update tomorrow after the interview and thanks for all the well wishing. All appreciated and taken in.

Pretty much smashed second interview this morning!!!

Both the financial controller and finance manager think I would be fantastic addition to the team, but my lack of experience means that I would be taking a slight pay cut as the colleagues in identical roles have lower salaries but more experience. Tbh, i was expecting a pay cut anyways as I initially was looking to find a sme to get broader experience in but since this post has become available as long as it's not a pisstake salary I'm pretty much waiting on the official offer according to the recruiter on the feedback they gave him.

Hopefully around this afternoon I should have confirmation.

Thanks for the support as before.

Slowly starting to believe that I'm in a job that is truly fulfilling for the first time, after a career of stepping-stoning. I really underestimated the impact work can have on my overall content.

 

I keep trying to tell people this, when they are chasing money for this job n that job...

 

its better to find the RIGHT role rather than the one that pays the most money, as whats the point in having dough if you your too miserable/discontent with your existence to enjoy it!

 

The happiest people in life are not always the richest!

Finally received an email telling me that a formal offer will be coming on Monday. As long as all is kosher with the offer I'm done with the job hunt.

Happy to be sharing this positivity with all of you. Onwards and upwards and all the best with whatever you lot are after.
