| 今天终于接到电话,说给我offer了,应该会在下星期一接到offer letter。 薪水30K+10% bonus,她还主动问我没有达到我的期望,是否对薪水不满,我怕夜长梦多就没跟她侃价,如果我坚持估计35K也有希望。 挺高兴的,这么久终于有工作了,甚至觉得too good to be true。2周以后开始工作,我要准备搬到伦敦了 谢谢各位鼓励和帮助,尤其是verona,没有你的指点恐怕我现在都在准备回国了,我到伦敦以后请你吃饭 |

| 地址是Frampton Street NW8 8NQ,地铁到Edgware road出站台还要走一会,伦敦一区西北。打电话问了几个中介,附近的房子的确很贵,1居室至少800一个月?这样一算,每月工资将近1/3贡献给英国政府(tax & NI),剩下一半交了房租,剩下还要还银行credit card,如果这样,老婆写完毕业论文赶紧去打工吧 还是不太明白Relocation allowarance 是怎么给的?如果事后报销,银行帐户里的钱怕是不够一个月房租+deposit。 请你们俩喝广东茶也算包销范围那么,那各位的亲戚朋友都来吧 拿到offer letter以后问问HR。 去打工的agency辞工,结果居然不放我走,说他们Christmas缺人,尤其我这种熟练waiter,非让我再干两个周末,就算帮帮他们。 最后总结一下,我这个工作多亏Verona以及disillusion等帮我改的专业CV(要是一起开个cv writting company英国那些本地公司都倒闭),发的CV一下就被HR们重视起来; 还有各位一直对我的鼓励,让我坚信网站上撒CV还是有用的,因为英国找工作就是这么找,只要按Verona的正确方法坚持努力,再加点运气,就有可能成功。正确的方法包括薪水不能要求太低,低于25K都让人看不起 运气来了,中介介绍的oxfordshire的那家公司虽然没有成功,但是为这次次interview打了很好的基础,因为工作内容相似,都是mobile software development,甚至薪水范围都相似。因此在这次interview前我很清楚自己应该准备什么,不懂的问问有经验的人(比如请教了toad OOD的问题),针对job requirements每一条充分准备,甚至我写了个小程序当场演示给他们看,用来弥补我没有某些相关经验的不足。 运气还有,这是个美国公司,公司里的人员各国都有,HR是黑人,techical lead好像是是法国人,不会歧视;公司是startup的公司估计招聘经验也不足。 这次工作好像是从http://www.theitjobboard.com找到的,难得有一个不是中介的vacancy,接到电话说是某公司HR我都很意外。上一次好像是在cwjobs.co.uk上发的。几个网站基本我都用,中介也是,因此常常看到重复的工作。 thank you everyone and good luck! |

| 慕飞: 为何不看看前面Verona写的如何写CV。 robo: 为何不早点说……是什么样的房子?什么地方?怎么那么便宜? 附近的studio也要至少800每月呢。如果还有我deposit不要了去住你那。 刚找到一处1 bedroom flat 220 pcw 贵但是正像XP说的很不错, 实际有三间房间,厨房厕所也都不小,砍了半天价才勉强同意。 看了一天的房累死了,就决定这套了。回家一算要破产了. Relocation Allowarance, 公司有一封信有详细规定,文件锁了我贴不上来。 对于买房者它给 1.买房的手续费,比如律师和中介费, 2 咨询费 3 注册费 4 搬家费和寄存费、保险 5 cost of transport for member of staff and their family to the new location 6 cost of preliminary trips to the new location by the member of staff and their family 7 cost of travelling form the old property to the new property at the time of the move 8 cost of necessary expenditure on replacement carpets, fixtures and fittings, the reconn/discon services(electricity, gas, water , telephone etc) 9 Legal expense or services connected with any loan raised to acquire or secure the property 10 arrangement fee and interest charges on bridging loan 11 Mortagage indemnity premiums 租房: 4, 5, 6, 7. cost of 8 if unfurnished cost in involved in terminating one and entering into another tenancy agreement e.g. tenancy agreement fees, inventory charges, estate agent's fees etc. 这样看,买房可以节省许多钱,如果租房也就只能报销路费、搬家费和手续费 对了,仔细看了看,是1000pounds relocation allowarance,不知道是我听错了还是她念错了。 |

| So finally we have a Saatchi girl. Are you with M&C Saatchi or you are based at Charlotte Street? M&C is up and coming but the old good S&S is still the best around. Did you have a great Xmas party? What's the highlight? Did you have stretch limos red carpet champer reception all the usual stuff? I don't say no to people who offer to buy me coffee/lunch/dinner. See PM for my contacts. Verona |
