An Expensive Interview

[poliphilo]

Joe filled up his car with water and oil, drove to the bottom of the road and the clutch cable broke.

So we wound up driving him to Bolton.

It was a good interview. The guy says he'd employ him like a shot but first he (Joe)has to get the qualification he's already started working towards. So that's three weeks intensive study and....

Item: 3 Weeks Course work- £440
Item: I new clutch- £ 70

Total: £510

But it'll be worth it in the long run.

Right?

Is there any financial help available for the qualification? Here in Wales we have things called ILAs (Individual Learning Accounts) for people on low income who don't have qualifications. You contact LearnDirect about them. 0800 100 900

Good luck to Joe in his quest for a new job.

I don't know if he'd qualify. But provided things go to plan we've got it all worked out. The course is paid for now and all he has to do is get the work done then reapply for the job.

But I'll bear ILAs in mind
