Its taken you this long to be headhunted???!!! Theres a boom on - dont settle for anything less than a dream job. Use me as a ref and give me an email if you need to brainstorm......

Thanks for that, I might just take you up on the ref thing :)
I still don't actually know exactly what the position is, but it sounds really good.
I'll jinx it if i say much more than i already have?!!

Demand your dream conditions are see if they offer them!

Hmm... I'll have to think about what my dream conditions are though!
I'm hopeless at negotiating salaries and such like... but practice will be good :)

Ask for a very high salary (but not super-ridiculous) without batting an eyelash- they can only say no and you can then negotiate to something that is still probably awesome- remember they want you- you have to take the attitude of 'well why should I work for you?' and get what you want! Plus we all know men can't say no to a sexy confident woman! :)

Thanks *grins*
It felt pretty special to be bought lunch :)

I take it you and Liam will be out on saturday night? If there's nothing else planned, Jon and I were considering having people round for some drinks before hand... if Liam will share you ;)

I hope you guys are having heaps of fun over there!

Ooh good luck. Make them give you champagne and candy :) <- seriously sound career advice :p

Mmmm... I got my last job via too much champagne ;)
at the work christmas party i was talking to one of the partners and he's like "so you can do this, and this and this?" and I'm like "yeah, I can sooo do that" so he gave me a job :)
I don't think its a good tactic for more formal interviews though :/

but it's definitely something you should demand in your work conditions! :D

yay for drunken networking and getting jobs whilst partying. You're so efficient you're partying at the same time *giggle*
