Well, today has been hectic. I've just been overwhelmed with the response I've been receiving to the campaign. This blog currently has 1,662 hits which, when you consider it only went live yesterday morning, is pretty phenomenal.
So, I was on the Spin 103.8 lunchtime show called 'The Spin' today and had a chat with the presenters Jonathan and Clare. They gave me the time to explain what my campaign is about and how it came about. They also gave out the contact details and the all-important hashtag #WillieWantsWork. I'm extremely grateful to the guys for giving me the opportunity to go on air and get the word out to a wider audience. I will admit to being very nervous though!
I have also been contacted by a website who are interested in doing a piece about me and the campaign to secure employment and I hope to get that all sorted out tomorrow.
The groundswell of support that I have received from everyone has been fantastic. When I had the idea to start the campaign and put myself out there I did so with some trepidation as I expected to get quite a bit of stick over it. If there are any dissenters out there, they've remained silent and I'm happy with that. Although, being honest, it wouldn't deter me in the slightest, not one bit. I have my eyes set on a goal and I will achieve it!
I also set up a small website to support the campaign and to give people a point of reference for what I'm doing. I'll post the link at the bottom.
The final thing for today, and I've intentionally saved it until last, is that I have secured an interview for a position with a very well known company for tomorrow morning. I'm really looking forward to going along and getting the opportunity to sell myself.
Thanks for reading. All the important contact details are below and all I ask is that you please share the blog and website links with everyone you know.
Chat soon.
