    Hi

    Just want advice on something I have a fixed contract at work that is up in a month. I got an email late this evening asking me to go for an interview at 4 on on Wed (short notice!!) anyway said I will check with work tomorrow and reply back. What do you think I should tell my boss? the truth that I have an interview, feel sick etc.. as said only have 4 wks left with them and its kind of 50/50 if they renew contract or not so defo need as many interviews as I can get

    tell the boss nothing;) until you receive a job offer in writing and you sign it. How long have u been on a fixed term contract?

    go to work and either take a half day or say your sick and you want to leave at 2 or 3pm:D You will never know if you dont try the interview

    How about saying you have to go to dentist at 3, emergency filling.
