receptionist/admin

think some firms may look at your work history and think .. mm he/she doesnt seem to stay longer than 6 months .. is it worth training him/her up to do the job and for them to leave when trained up .. other firms may think .. plenty of experience .. its a catch 22 situation ... think it all depends on what they're looking for ...

i know someone who had worked for bt for many years .. and finally left .. went to the jobcentre to see what they could do for them .. never been in a jobcentre in their life .. and the girl in the jobcentre was gobsmacked when she asked for the start date at bt .. when they said 1970 ... she said you worked for bt for 40 years .. we dont get that many people in here who have never been here before!!!
