Kind of two in one here I suppose.

Firstly - applying for jobs

Secondly - when the employer states 'we will only contact you if you are successful'. So am I supposed to hang around on the off chance you might ask me for interview etc in 2, maybe up to 3 weeks time?! Sure it would be simple enough to send a 'thanks but no thanks' email.

Grrr

5 thats about 250ft and the exits are signposted 2 miles back perhaps you shouldn't leave it so late

I left it half a mile before but at 56mph you are not sure whether you can get past to get off. They do it while trying to get on aswell, this time it was 5, another time it will be 10. Just leave an artic lengths + between each one its simples

Last time I was in the job market I had applied for a number of jobs in the FW which could have taken me to anywhere in the country, it was time for a complete change. After my first interview I hadn't recieved any offers of interviews from the others but the chap offered me the job there and then, I tried to buy some time and wanted to mull it over for a few days, the morning after phoning him up to say yes to the job which was a week after applying the other 9 were offering interviews.
Hindsight is a wonderfull thing but after being told that a change of farming policy when working on a large estate meant that you had 6 weeks to find a new job and a new house with a 12 month old kind of makes you a bit desperate.
