Anyone here been interviewed by your local social welfare dept. about your situation?

If so, how did it go?

Edit: I meant FAS.

I'm meeting them in the morning. Was supposed to meet them yesterday but they changed it because someone in the office is out sick or something. Anyway I'll let you know how it goes.

Hey,

Iv a meeting tomorrow. How was it - what did you bring. Just found out today so in a panic getting stuff together (docs etc)

ive had two meetings with fas. they just talk about your options and show what courses they have to offer and see if your interested in signing up for one.
its like talking to a careers councillor at school :rolleyes:

Had mine this morning, much less hassle than expected. Just updated details from the last time I reg'd with them. Then told them about the jobs I've applied for, what I'm interested in etc.

Interviewer just said "Ok, you have obviously been looking for work and you've done a course with us before so you know what options there are for you if you want" then spent 5 mins explaining about the work experience placement scheme and then I was out.

Spent about 10 - 15 mins in there and brought no documents with me.

No docs required. Just told me of courses that might be suitable and suggested I do a year long level 6 course , despite the fact that I have an MA in the same subject - so I said no thanks and that was that.
