Posted By David Bannister Some people have advised applying for loads of new jobs, just to "test the waters" and see whether "the grass is greener" which is all well and good in the short term. Can I introduce a little caveat: the safety & health employment world is quite small and time wasters are quite likely to be remembered for a long time. My advice would be to apply for the jobs you want, go for it 100% and leave the others to those who want them. If you don't get the job you want, ask why and learn from the experience. Employers are looking to fill vacancies with the best candidate for them, not play at CV reading/interviews.

Posted By stephen d clarke Hi, In addition to the above in my experience you can't have too many interviews. The more practice you can get the better because the same or very similar questions come up time and time again and an immediate confident response will bring greater success. You want to be in the driving seat so you can pick and choose the job that appears best for you. The employer will wait until you have given a verbal acceptance of an offer if you turn them down they'll just go to their second choice. Good luck Steve
