2  General Discussion / Help...Specifically / Re: Help need reasonably priced restaurant close to Berkeley Square / Piccadilly on: May 08, 2013, 10:48:27 am
Hi Chatham Lady

One of my contacts came up with the following:

The Wolsely - Picadilly - great service, traditional very well done English food.
Hix Mayfair - Dover Street - super trendy but good traditional British food.
Pescatori - Dover Street - one of London's top fish restaurants
Banka - North Audley St - a new Italian, but you can reserve large booths for a more 'private' lunch.

A good place to look is SquareMeal.com and you can search by area...

Hope that helps.

11  General Discussion / Sound Off! / Do you trust your boss/employer? on: July 23, 2012, 11:32:33 am

With the recent corporate scandals, the CIPD has done a survey with fascinating results (see link). How do you feel about your company? What about your boss? Has the way you feel about your boss/management/company changed since you first started your job?

12  General Discussion / Help...Specifically / Re: STAR interview technique on: July 17, 2012, 03:17:08 pm
This may help a little?

http://www.deskdemon.com/pages/uk/career-training/index

I have about five/six different examples that I can make fit to whatever they are asking - ie teamwork, communications,  etc - sometimes these cross over and you can use the same example to cover both.

Dealing with difficult customer/task can be used for:

- Responsibility
- Leadership
- Trustworthiness & Ethics
- Career motivation
- Decision making
- Commercial awareness
- Communication Skills
- Results orientation
- Problem solving
- Teamwork
- Organising Skills
- Commitment to career

Is the interview for a legal position? When is it? And good luck!
