    Government Careers Advice Questionnaire

    Anybody tried the new careers advice questionnaire that the government have posted? I assume it's part of the 'Fatima's next job is in cyber...' initiative.

    Here: https://beta.nationalcareers.service.gov.uk/

    So I thought I'd give it a whirl. I got some interesting results.

    Apparently a career as a 'stunt performer' is waiting for me.

    Failing that, a hotel porter, museum assistant, a school business manager, a vehicle body repairer or a psychiatrist.

    So, stunt woman it is then. I've got knee pads, so I'm well on the way...

    Stoopid questions.

    I was happy at first with all the caring profession directions until the chef
    bit.

    Seriously? Just because I answered yes to like following instructions and working as part of a team.

    I think a career in after dinner speaking is looming in his near future.

    The variations I got were so wide as to be meaningless, however retail sales did come up, a little further checking and back came the response, everything from till check out operator to retail sales manager, not much difference there then.

    Is a spade a shovel, diplomacy is pretending you like something you hate with a passion.

    It is a stupid exercise I've never been an office wallah so why would Business and Finance suit me. Teaching and Education no chance I would be sacked after my first encounter with some smart ar5ed kid who thinks they can do as they like.
