There does seem to be a somewhat patronising tone creeping in here (in my humble opinion). As you said yourself '(and still mobile) graduate' and 'that was in the (ha ha) "good times"'. I take it you were still mobile and in your early twenties when you got your first job? Happy to be corrected though. Jon Shepherd Well...start at the bottom and work up! This sounds ideal for a newly qualified (and still mobile) graduate doesn't it? My first job after qualifying was a 6 month contract in RM doing very basic work; then a one year contract in RM doing slight;y less basic stuff; then a permanent contract in RM doing 'real work', then finally after a total of 6 and a half years, I got the permanent archive job I had always wanted. And that was in the (ha ha) "good times" for the public sector. Get whatever's going guys, and get the experience under your belts...this is not the time to be picky about semi-permanent or part-time jobs 'cause that's mostly what's on offer at the mo. Apply. Apply. Apply. Be patient! Get experience! Don't give up!! Steve Steven Davies Archivist / Archifydd Flintshire Record Office / Archifdy Sir y Fflint Tel./Ffôn: (01244) 532414
