    Hi,

    sorry that I'm asking a lot of questions.
    But now I'm also enclosing my grades, from two university-colleges, in Oslo, so that you
    can see, that I have good grades in Computing and also some business-modules.

    So I'm going to explain more about these skills as well, on my CV.
    Also, my problem is, that my Home University in Norway, Oslo University College, they
    don't want to send me a 2 or even a 3 year bachelor degree in computing, which I think

    these files qualify for.
    So I feel a bit stupid, when I apply for work, since I haven't got a degree, due to this.
    But now I'm also contacting NHI/NITH, so maybe that university-college, have the

    opertunity, to send me a degree.
    But, when I studied, we had groupt-assignments, so I did most of the difficult Java-
    programming and perl-programming etc.
    But I didn't get to learn web-design that good, since we had group-assignments.

    So I dealt more with programming, and this took much of my time there, on the groups,
    so I didn't get to learn web-design and PHP that well.
    So that's why I was wondering about this again.

    Thank you very much again, for the help with the CV!
    Yours sincerely,
    Erik Ribsskog

    Hi Margaret,

    thank you very much for your help with the CV, it looks very brilliant now!

    I'm just a bit conserned, now it looks a bit like I have holes in my education and work experience.

    Aren't companies going to wonder what I was doing before 1998, and after I finished studying?
    And shouldn't I write that I won the famous Food shop-manager contest, in Norway, in 2001, in Rimi,

    'Rimi Goldmines', and things like that?
    But other than that, I thought the CV was very fine!
    Thank you very much for you help with this.
    In our meeting, a couple of weeks ago, we talked a bit about courses.

    I've studied computing, for several years, but when I look at the vacancies now, very many companies
    are looking for people who know PHP.
    We talked about, in our meeting, that the Jobcenter had some courses, that could be available to me,

    since I unfortunatly has been unemployed for some months.
    But is it right that you have courses in web-design and/or PHP, you think, since I see that many
    companies advertise for people who knows PHP, so I thought to take a course in that would be

    very useful for my chances for getting an interesting and challenging job.
    Or should I bring this up in the review-meeting later this week, at the jobcenter?
    Thanks again for your fine help with the CV!

    Yours sincerely,
    Erik Ribsskog

    Hi Margie,

    I'm refering to our meeting at the Job-center at Williamsons Sq., last week, and I'm enclosing

    a copy of my revised CV, as agreed.

    I've added a column called 'Personal Profile', on the CV, like you adviced me to do.

    Is it right that you also want me to remove some of my work-practise, from my CV, since it's

    many years since I worked in my first jobs. Isn't it valuable for new employers to also be able

    to see which jobs I had, some years ago, to see that I've always been working/studying etc?

    We also discussed cover-letters, and I thought I'd use something like the Person Profile on

    the CV, as a cover-letter. What do you think is the difference between what should be in the

    cover-letter, and what should be in the personal profile on the CV, by the way?

    Thanks again for the fine advice in the meeting, and sorry that it took some days for me to

    get this done!

    Yours sincerely,

    Erik Ribsskog

    Hi,

    this was due to that I got a number of strange/phoney translation-jobs, through translation-

    directory.

    This was from people claiming to be from the Norwegian labour-party etc., who wanted me to transfer

    from Norwegian to English, even if I was listed as someone who translates from English to Norwegian.

    So this was targeted harassment, that I recieved throught translationdirectory.

    And this went on and on, so that it wasn’t just one or two jobs, it was a lot of jobs every day,

    so I didn’t have the time to deal with all this harassment.

    It could be that some freemasons etc., in Norway was having fun with me.

    A guy in the Netherlands, Sebastian Mojs, I think his name was, he didn’t pay for all my work,

    when I transfered some domain-names.

    Then I sent you a complaint.

    But the people working for the masons etc., in Norway, sent an e-mail with lies about me, to

    Mr. Mojs, from the Netherlands.

    And then he sent this e-mail to you.

    And then you at translation directory, took Mr. Mojs side in the dispute.

    So then I didn’t think that TranslationDirectory, was a fine place any longer, since I only

    recieved fake/phoney job-offeres, that only was a waste of my time, so then I unfortunatly

    didn’t see any good reasons for continuing to be listed on your translation-site.

    So that’s how this is.

    Yours sincerely,

    Erik Ribsskog

  • Jobbsøking i England: Møte på the Jobcenter igår. (In Norwegian)

    Jeg var forresten også på et ‘review’-møte, på the Jobcenter igår.

    Et 26-uker arbeidsledig review-møte.

    Vanligvis, så bare viser jeg et skjema, hvor jeg har skrevet opp hvilke jobber jeg har søkt.

    Men, etter at man har vært arbeidsledig 3 måneder og 6 måneder, så må man på et spesielt ‘review’-møte da.

    Og det hadde jeg igår med Mrs. Henderson, på Williamsons Sq. Jobcenter, her i Liverpool.

    Og da fant Mrs. Henderson ut, at grunnen til at jeg nok ikke kom på jobbintervju, det var at CV-en min var på hele 4 sider.

    Og det var alt for mye.

    Hvis CV-ene var på mer enn 2 sider, så ville arbeidsgiver begynne å kjede seg.

    Og jeg måtte også skrive mine ‘skills’, altså ferdigheter, først i CV-en.

    Før utdannelse og arbeidserfaring og slikt, lærte jeg.

    Så nå, så skal jeg på møte, på the Jobcenter, neste uke.

    Et ekstramøte, noe som heter ‘Connect’-møte, for å få råd angående CV-en.

    Jeg tror at kanskje arbeidsgivere blir redde, hvis man har jobbet mange steder og drevet med mye.

    For da kan de kanskje ikke ‘pushe’ vedkommende arbeidstager rundt, og bruke vedkommende som ‘slave’, i like stor grad.

    Kan det være derfor jeg ikke kommer til jobbintervju, at firmaene ikke ønsker for kompetente medarbeidere, for da kan de ikke tulles med?

    Hva vet jeg.

    Men nå skal jeg ihvertfall på møte, og lære og skrive om alt jeg har drevet med, på mindre enn 2 sider, sånn at ikke arbeidsgiverne skal bli redde for meg, eller kjede seg, når de leser CV-en.

    Så sånn er det.

    Jeg må forresten også på nytt review-møte med Mrs. Henderson, om 4 uker.

    Og Mrs. Henderson, som het Shelly, tror jeg(?)

    Hun var en ganske myndig dame på min alder, tror jeg.

    Kanskje i slutten av 30-årene(?)

    Og jeg var litt trøtt, for jeg trodde først at jeg skulle på vanlig ‘sign on’-møte, igår.

    For jeg har også vært på møte på et annet jobcenter, forrige uke, som jeg var litt forsinka på, så jeg måtte dra idag istedet, på Edge Lane jobcenter.

    Og jeg måtte også på ekstra møte forrige uke på Williamssons Sq. jobcenter.

    Så igår gikk jeg litt i surr, må jeg innrømme.

    Så jeg dukka opp kl. 11.15 for et vanlig ‘sign on’-møte.

    Men så fikk jeg høre av vakta, at jeg skulle jo være der 14.20 og prate med Mrs. Henderson, om et ’26 week review’-møte.

    Og da var jeg litt trøtt på det møte, så jeg trodde møte var ferdig, for det var en del som ble gått igjennom.

    Og jeg er vant til å de sign on-møtene går ganske raskt.

    Så jeg reiste meg opp et par-tre ganger, for jeg trodde møte med Mrs. Henderson var ferdig.

    Og da ble Mrs. Henderson så sinna på meg, at hun begynte å forklare hva hun gjorde med menn som ikke gjorde hva hun sa.

    Hun begynte å bli litt truende.

    Hun sa ikke helt hva hun gjorde med menn, som ikke gjorde hva hun sa.

    Men noe var det.

    Det var kanskje fordi jeg gjorde et poeng av det var nesten sommer nå.

    Og damer er vel sånn ofte, at da blir de misunnelige, hvis en mann har fri og ikke de.

    Så et råd, ikke oppsøk en dame du kjenner hvis hun er på jobb, og du har fri.

    Så nå må jeg tilbake i nytt møte med Mrs. Henderson, hvis jeg ikke får meg jobb, om fire uker.

    Og det gruer jeg meg litt til, for Mrs. Henderson var litt truende kanskje, må man kanskje si.

    Så jeg vet ikke helt hva det her gikk ut på, men jeg er ikke helt sikker på om jeg kanskje ikke synes litt synd på Mr. Henderson.

    Det er mulig, selv om det kanskje ikke er min business.

    Men Mrs. Henderson gikk litt langt, når hun begynte å true, og begyne å prate om hva hun gjorde med menn som ikke hørte på henne.

    Det vil jeg kanskje si.

    Men sånn er det kanskje i vår feministiske tidsalder, eller hva man skal kalle det.

    Det er mulig.

    Så sånn er nok det.

    Med vennlig hilsen

    Erik Ribsskog
