Essential criteria:
“Established credibility and authority, and experience of gaining the confidence of very senior colleagues.”
In a way, yes, I meet this criteria. But only from behind my computer screen.
In person? With my perpetual slouch, wonky teeth, and dithering conversation?
Of course, I am not credible. I don’t have the stature required for the advertised role.
But no big deal. Who wants a two-hour commute to East London for a pretend hybrid role?
Better to accept my limitations as some kind of blessing in disguise.
