So it appears that I’ve been successful in my interview last week. It’s about a 2 month contracting process, but both my managers are happy to be referees.
More money, longer contract and more importantly, no one reports to me!!!
@Gibsonhasafluffybutt good luck today. You got this shit.

Congratulations!! They’d be remiss not to recognise your competence.
Also:
no one reports to me
Worth its weight in gold.

It is. When I told my manager, he asked if they’re hiring 😁

This is wonderful news. So happy for you. 💐🍾

Thank you, still have to go through some governmental hoops until I get the formal offer, but already have stuff in writing.
Feels pretty good actually.
Duenan@aussie.zone 1 week ago
oohh so you’re locked in pretty much?
MeanElevator@aussie.zone 1 week ago
Essentially yes. They’ll be sending me my remuneration package, once I accept it, they do reference checks and such (standard gov stuff), then my role gets their big chiefs endorsement, then I get the formal offer.
Unless I say no, which I’m unlikely, or their big boss not sign off (also unlikely), locked in.
