I applied for an Systems Officer level 2 (SO2) at the Ministry of Health almost a month ago now. I have yet to hear anything from them and am beginning to lose faith that I will even get an interview for the experience. I would love the job as I am doing ok for money, but am not able to get a part time job as there are not enough hours in the day to get everything done.

I know they said they will only be contacting those candidates that they have selected, but I have not heard any buzz around the office of any interviews in process. Hopefully things have just been slowed down by bureaucratic crud and I will get an email or phone call some time soon.

Getting this position will give me one of a few options. Either I take the job full time and forget my last year in CPA and everything else. Or I try and work something out with them so I can still go to school and finish my last year and still work as many hours as possible the rest of the week. This would mean I would have to drop my position as Director of Tech and Trades, but I would be willing to do that as getting a job with the Government is more important to me.

I just hope they call soon and it does not get to late.

Update: Does not look like I will be getting an interview. Guess I will have to keep trying.
