Most recently spent just under a year unemployed, applying for over 150 jobs. I got a part-time teaching position but when it came close to my visa expiration and renewal application, I was unfortunately short of the minimum hours which would've enabled me to stay in the country. One company in particular emailed me three weeks after my application saying that I lacked any background required for this position, which I could not understand at all since I had at least the minimum qualifications and six years of experience in related fields.
A month after I had left the country and returned to the UK, I have just received an email saying that after reviewing my CV, I do indeed have the required background and they'd like to invite me to an interview…
It doesn't bother me too much, since I have now find a job in another country, but that would've saved me a hell of a lot of moving hassle if they'd paid attention in the first place!
