I have an interview tomorrow
 

Hello flower pots.

I have a job interview tomorrow morning over teams at 9;00am for a job in New Zealand. :cheer2:

I have to do some research now about the Maori cultural needs and the treaty of waitangi so I at least sound like I have a clue. Lol :shrug::conf::joker:

I applied for the job and then I've only been given two days before this interview, but I will wing it because I know what I'm talking about, but just haven't a clue about new Zealand Aboriginals so I need to do a little research there.

I know you're all so eager to get rid of me so I thought I would update you all. :dance:

I know you're all so eager to get rid of me so I thought I would update you all

They have internet in New Zealand as well :p


Best of luck with the interview, I'm sure you will do great

Ben is in NZ

Omg what a head ache, I have googled this and I don't know where to start. Ughhh

Omg, imagine if we meet up and make babies and then he realises it's me :joker:

Ben isn't in NZ anymore Arista

Thank you. It's so early to do an interview. What sort of time is 9am. I'm going to do it in my pants and just put a shirt on as the camera won't be facing down

Time difference I suppose, although I'm sure it would make it 8pm or something over there which would be an odd time to interview

Good luck, you would think they would want a local to do a job like that, just thinking out loud :think:

Yeah it will be, but I suppose he's trying to accommodate me.

It's the guidelines for cultural assessment - Maori, under the intellectual disability - compulsory care and rehabilitation act 2003 that I need to read

I haven't the motivation at the minute. I'll do a workout and then feel more energised to take it on and make some notes on the key information. Bound to be asked in interview.

Like everywhere, it's just really hard to get the staff.

Will always be a need for agency staff even if just for short periods of time.

I am an asset to anywhere I work. Not just my experience, but my attitude and work presence.

Not being big headed, but I have succeeded in every job and done well.

I'm also a dog with a bone so if I feel something then I advocate to the high hills.

aw right, hope you get it, you seem ready for another adventure

Thank you :hee:

Would this job not be better to be given to someone who is from NZ and understands the ethnic indigenous heritage?

"new Zealand Aboriginals"? as in the people that the Maoris brutally massacred to extinction a few hundred years before the Brits landed and made everything better?

Bloody hell, he moved quick to get away from Thomas.

[emoji28]

No I am the right man for the job. Lol.

Fundamentals don't change no matter what country you're in

Well I think people from New Zealand are just called mairo anyway. I'm going to have to Google how you pronounce this.

:joker:

Took the first flight out of NZ this am I heard

He was never a fan I don't think.

Silly psychopath

I once looked after a man who was Japanese I think.

He was called Alex, but that wasn't his real name, but a nickname as his actual name was too complicated I think.

He didn't speak and would just try and hit you all the time. This was in Australia when I did ndis and I'd go see him for couple of hours and take him the park, but you had to stand back because he'd swipe you.

I had to feed him and this one day he knocked his dinner tray out my hand and it went all over me and up the wall. I tried to be so nice to him too lol. He obviously couldn't help it, he had a traumatic brain injury.

But point I'm making is that I've looked after lots of different people

I would love to live in New Zealand, best of luck Thomas. I'm sure you will smash it.

Thank you.

New Zealand doesn't massively appeal to me, not like Australia did, but I either do it now or I don't.

My current employer is also keeping my job open for me and I have no commitments here.

It's just scary though and a lot to process and think about.

You won’t get it Thomas

Lol, I will. I am very good. :dance:

And I am very charming and use fancy words.

I am not worried at all tbh

My interview is at 9.

Ohhh gawd. I better get dressed soon.

I'm failing at trying to understand Moari language

Squeaky bum time

Good luck Thomas xx

Good luck!

Yes, it all depends on the others
are they more relaxed?

NZ is in health crisis as are so many other places.

I could turn up in NZ and walk into a job sharpish.

Sheriff with all due respect hasn't a clue what he's talking about.

Thanks for the well wishes guys.

And relaxed.. I'm cool as a cucumber.

are you in your dressing gown, that will impress them, or better still topless

Yes I am in my dressing gown.

But I have my clothes on the bed ready. I'm going to go get dressed any minute.

I'm all set, apart from getting dressed.

See you on the other side.

Yes
good to do notes.

well no one is here.

But the invite email says:

We would like to invite you to attend an interview on 14 Jul 2022 10:00 PM. The interview will be held at our office located at Via MS Teams - 9am UK Time, 10pm NZ time.

Those times don't make sense. 10pm NZ time will be 11am UK time not 9am. I will log into the the teams at 11:00am to see if anyone shows.

This is the problem when you're communicating with a time difference.

The email also says: As discussed via phone, we are pleased to advise that you have been short listed for the position.

But no one actually did ring me i just got the invite, but I have been communicating via email with the guy. Rather than ring me as I am in the UK he just sent that saying I had been shortlisted. Must be a generic email that has the times wrong.
