One of the guys in the re-deployment pool has asked me to basically help them with an application for a Contract Managers job, here is the questions he practically wants me to answer for him, the poor lad has no contract management experience;
1. Knowledge of best pratcie in consulting the local community - This he should already know or at least do his homework to find out
2. Knowledge of contract management, programme management and work programming in a construction environment - unfortunately he know nothing about this but could have easily learned over the past 7 years.
3. Knowledge of leasehold consultation requirements - Again needs to do his homework to find this out
4. Extensive experience of managing a wide range of projects - This he has'nt got
5. Experience of working with multi trade contractors and managing teams -well he has experience of dealing with multi trade contractor through the term contracts, but not of managing teams or staff.
Whilst I will help the guy out and draft up some stuff for his application, I have pointed out to him that he will need to do some homework on these subjects and tell the panel if he gets shortlisted (which I doubt), that he has'nt actually done any contract management. I am not his manager, his current manager is useless, would personally sacked her ages ago, this blokes got till the end of this month then he is out the door if he does'nt get something. There are plenty jobs up for grabs, but they have to apply for them, but I just can't see him getting past the interview if he ever gets that far. Not for this specific job anyway. :-/

Poor bloke.. he needs to apply for more than just one job though!

There are quite a few jobs going, and I am sure he'll get something, but not certain that he has the right experience to get through the interview unless he blags it :-/.....My staff were affected but they actually got through their interviews and actually got the contract managers job :y
