I got an interview for Musgrave Park hospital on Thursday \o/

Here's hoping it goes well.

Also, I see a dissapointing lack of paper piggies! Where are the fruits of your labours?

That one on the left looks pretty poor, though. more of a bull than a piggy. :p

Very good attempts. :)

I would guess that yours is the one on the right.

Less banter aldo, more folding!

rofl. Only you have to go one step too far, eh? As for the flowers, well, I can think of worse jobs. Your own flower shop? Could be nice. That or a cake shop!

I've been hunting for a placement job for what feels like forever. Biomed. jobs seem few and far between. :(
Local or across the British Isles?

I had an interview with a firm in Inverness (LifeScan Scotland) a while ago that did medical work (diabetes testing devices), not sure if they do placements though.

The work search is an utter b#stard, though. Took me about a year to find this job....
Those guys are f#####g morons. Graduate fair 2006:
Me: "Hi, I've got an honours degree in Computing - and I'm diabetic so I know a bit about your products - do you have any openings in I.T?"
Her: "Uhh..."
Me: "Well I imagine the software for your testing devices..."
Her: "No not really, we're looking for business graduates."
Me: *squint of doom*

I applied before the graduate fair; R&D or something similar. Then I went to the graduate fair, and asked for info; 'nope, nothing' (etc). And then I got offered - surprisingly - an interview. Went up, did the interview in Inver-bollocksfreezing-ness, and then got phoned back to tell me they couldn't really see what I could do for them. Well, no s### sherlock.......
