Hi fellow teacher 👋

For context, NCBI is the National Council for the Blind of Ireland. It's an NGO.

"MY WIFE LEFT ME BECAUSE I THINK A BURRITO IS A TYPE OF SANDWICH"

Definitely one of my better mornings :)

Aren't the birds lovely,

Atop the sycamore tree

Singing their hearts out?

There's something really relaxing about this one. I love it.

Best of luck with the job hunt!

I recommend looking up the STAR method for answering competency based questions (eg tell us about a time you worked with a difficult customer). The best thing is the stories don't even have to be true! As long as they sort of match up with your experience and follow the STAR method you'll go far.

Also applying to jobs these days is a really long slog. Remember to take frequent breaks! And do not take any rejection personally. Easier said than done I know! Try to think of it as a numbers game. Your goal is to throw as many resumes as possible out into the ether. One of them is bound to boomerang back with a job offer.

You'll do great!
