Could someone please explain the nhs strikes to me cos I genuinely don’t get it?
They knew the pay when they joined? Health care assistants pushing tea trolleys and giving out pills need a pay increase why? Average ambulance paramedic wage is £27k? Average nurse wage is £33k??
When I saw I graduated with 2.2 I nearly cried blood🥲. Everyone told me I wouldn’t find a job
Then 3 months later I secured a tech grad job with no experience 🥳
So if you got a 2:2 in your degree it’s really not the end of the world, celebrate yourself.
Left my job old 6 months ago while dealing with tech layoffs and a crazy job market
But Ive started a new role as a product analyst within fintech 🥺🥂🥳
After 5 years working as a tech consultant I’m finally moving into the product space 🫶🏾
Officially got a new job & role as an IT consultant working in Fintech! As in I’ll be managing projects for financial services !🥳
After 3 years in tech I’ve finally switched to Fintech management & im ready 🥺
