10:19.50 | JD | hi all |
10:20.34 | ticallion | howdy folks |
10:20.48 | ticallion | I'm looking for employment sites dealing with the uk, any suggestions?! |
10:21.03 | JD | linuxjobs.co.uk? |
10:21.17 | JD | just make sure you have a word format CV :( |
10:21.49 | ticallion | I don't wanna post my resume online, just wanna search for jobs |
10:22.01 | jason_ukfsn | ticallion: there is always jobserve.co.uk - just remember most jobs being posted are not real. |
10:22.24 | ticallion | jason_ukfsn: what for then?! email fishing?! |
10:23.08 | Jense|A4266|Work | JD: yeh that pissed me off, the wholelinux/unix job sites only accepting .doc |
10:23.29 | jason_ukfsn | ticallion: generally they are fishing for leads |
10:23.51 | jason_ukfsn | when you contact them about a job they will try and get you to detail who you worked for before listing managers names etc. |
10:24.11 | ticallion | jason_ukfsn: uhuh |
10:24.30 | Jense|A4266|Work | Alex thinks Word format is the same as ASCII, but technically thsat isnt true is it |
10:24.53 | jason_ukfsn | very not true. It is a binary format |
10:28.39 | Jense|A4266|Work | jason_ukfsn: ty, that, was what, in my untechnical way, i was trying to say |
10:29.27 | Jense|A4266|Work | and he's the one who has a linux/unix job lol |
10:30.09 | skugg | ticallion, i think that if you are going to find real jobs posted anywhere (with contact details) you probably have to go directly to the companies' websites |
10:30.50 | ticallion | skugg: cool, thanks |
10:31.29 | skugg | (not the recruitment companies, mind, unless you're looking for a recruitment job ;) |
10:31.35 | Jense|A4266|Work | ticallion: I hope you've got some decent qualifications/experience coz everything I've seen seems to be calling for a lot of it. |
10:31.38 | ticallion | skugg: problem is, system administrators r needed in all types of companies |
10:31.54 | ticallion | Jense|A4266|Work: I have more than 5 years professional linux experience |
10:32.16 | skugg | ticallion, true |
10:32.25 | Jense|A4266|Work | ticallion: heh, well goodd luck to ya then :) I'm a girlie Slackware newbie, looking for some training |
10:32.54 | ticallion | Jense|A4266|Work: just make linux ur workstation and learn as u go if ur young |
10:33.09 | skugg | actually, i don't think i've really been into _computers_ for 5 years... |
10:33.26 | Jense|A4266|Work | ticallion: I'm 18....thats what I'm doing,been using Linux at home since November but only properly for about 3 months |
10:33.35 | Jense|A4266|Work | skugg: I've been into computers since Iwas about 4 lol |
10:34.02 | Jense|A4266|Work | ticallion: You coming to the gllug meet next week |
10:34.06 | skugg | heh. you outdo me then ;) |
10:34.22 | Jense|A4266|Work | skugg: True, butyou're still cleverer thanme I expect |
10:34.26 | ticallion | Jense|A4266|Work: u pay the plane fare?! |
10:34.37 | Jense|A4266|Work | ticallion: Where areyoufrom? |
10:34.40 | ticallion | Jense|A4266|Work: it's cool, just don't give up when u have a problem cos that's where u learn really what's going on underneath :) and seriously man with rute.sf.net, u have it easy |
10:34.43 | Jense|A4266|Work | damn, I hate this keyboard |
10:34.44 | ticallion | Jense|A4266|Work: live in Lebanon |
10:35.09 | Jense|A4266|Work | I see |
10:35.32 | ticallion | we never had rute.sf.net and we never had helpful people on irc... it was hard... sometimes I get pissed off when I'm helping out, feel it's unfair :P |
