lammo Dec 2015 4:42pm, 8 Dec 2015 6,301 posts	0 lammo I've posted a job that I'm recruiting for currently, is it ok?
Hanneke Dec 2015 4:48pm, 10 Dec 2015 68,374 posts	0 Hanneke Thank you fetch, this is ace! I shall be adding my 'advert' later. I am just about ticking over free lance doing about as many different jobs as you can imagine... But issues with my jaw caused by the dreaded Lyme disease means that I am £2000 down to pay for private dental treatment (NHS would have taken so long I would have lost my jaw ) and about £1000 in loss of income due to it, so feeling the pinch... Would be good to have another job or tow going, especially something indoors as three days a week gardening is starting to wear me down in this weather!
DeeGee Dec 2015 4:17pm, 14 Dec 2015 16,847 posts	0 DeeGee Advice please Here's the beginning of a person spec for a job as ICT technician in a school local to where I work. I am currently work as an IT technician with additional responsibility for assessment. I do not hold formal IT qualifications, having moved sideways from teaching, but have done this job for eight years. Do you reckon I should be able to justify that I meet these requirements?

Try to find things that you can put evidence to that you have done that might be equivalent, either in your cv or the covering letter or the application form if there is one. Go for it and good luck.
flanker Dec 2015 12:15am, 15 Dec 2015 16,218 posts	0 flanker if you can demonstrate equivalent experience and knowledge then you should have a chance. Very few people for that role will be Prince certified (unless they are downsizing job significantly) so I wouldn't worry about that much.
Hanneke Dec 2015 11:25am, 15 Dec 2015 68,392 posts	0 Hanneke I am a tad stressed! Big expensive month for me this month, with a HUGE dental bill to pay, as well as my first exam for my Naturopathy degree and the next module being paid and only two weeks of work to earn the money in and it is winter, so thin on the ground on gardening jobs! Not being helped by the cat getting an eye infection so I had a £60 vet's bill on top of everything else... MEH!!!
Hanneke Dec 2015 11:27am, 15 Dec 2015 68,393 posts	0 Hanneke I can really do with a nice big job, preferably done indoors, right now, even if it is just a one off thing... When I used to work as a translator, I got a job returned from another translator on Xmas eve, that needed to be in on Boxing Day (not a holiday where I come from) So I said errrr, well, it is Xmas... so they offered me a small fortune in fees to do the job, bingo! Anything like that would do me nicely right now thank you very much!
