And that is a good enough reason as anything to get blind drunk !

Congrats mate.

Good luck bud!

Fairly common thread in my trade (welfare to work). There are so many people applying for jobs. Add all the discrimination rules into it and I think they just find it easier to ignore apps so they don't trip themselves up.

I gather there's a job offer on the table, but for anyone else interested; what about contracting/consulting? Yes, it involves self-employment, but these days employers are just not able to guarantee income in the long term as they're stuck with small short-term contracts themselves. This means they need good people who can hit the ground running, but can't promise them a 'permanent' (whatever that means these days) job.

If you can develop a good network of forward thinking contract holders, you can bounce between them as/when they get work.

Just a thought...
