Here we go again

I wrote a blog like this a couple of years ago when I was living in Tokyo and looking for a job. I'm now back in the UK and going through the whole rigmarole again. The last time I lived in the UK I signed on, and one of the requirements was that I keep a diary of the jobs I'd applied for. Given that we're five years down the line and blogging is the new __________ (insert your own witty way of finishing this sentence) I felt that this was one way to keep track of the hoops I have to jump through in order to get gainful employment. As I said in my profile, I'm not stupid and I have experience in a variety of areas. I'm willing to relocate if necessary and I'm not afraid of hard work. It surely shouldn't be that difficult then, should it?
