  1. Why do jobs get re-advertised repeatedly after they've apparently "been filled"...? Grrrrr...

    1. Catkins

      Catkins

      I've found a lot of jobs that are being 'advertised' are filled by an employment agency, but they use the advert to hook people in.

      Good luck to you.

  16. Why is choosing the right career path these day's feel so frustratingly difficult?

    1. Catkins

      Catkins

      I would say that with the Navy, you do one career, and then when you reach a more mature age, you can get retraining and start another career - and no-one thinks it odd.

      Which ever way you choose to go, good luck.
