For me this year (or in October to be exact), I managed to bag myself an absolute bargain of a new diary insert for my Filofax. It's the first year I didn't get a Filofax brand insert.

This one is by Paperchase and it came with the nicest dividers as well as note paper and address paper too. I think this was around the £8 mark so it was an absolute steal for me.

Diary:
First of all I have my diary insert. I mainly use this to keep track of my work hours and any personal appointments. This way when I look back, I know what I did and when!

Addresses:
This is mainly of family! They've got to be kept somewhere and this seems the most fitting place.

Notes:
This is quite an important section for me. It keeps all the little things I need to remember. I write down ideas, blog posts and all things important.

Planner Supplies:
This has a whole section of it's own. I have a pile of to-do list inserts in there to keep track of the million and one things I need to do. I also have the insert of page markers and post its. This isn't the original post its on here as I used them all up. So I kept the dashboard and put new markers to colour code my work days by when I'm getting paid so it's easier for me to work out. Then I use the post its to note down anything important about that week.

I like to be crazy organised and I like to be able to refer to what I've done recently. Some may think it's a bit much but if I don't then I feel a bit lost!

What’s In My Bag – Job Interviews

A few weeks ago I had a number of interviews that I wanted to be prepared for. So here is a new edition of what’s in my bag!

To start with I used my nicest bag, just in case they noticed but also because it gave me that extra bit of confidence.

I always think it’s important to take an extra CV in case they need an extra copy or even if you see another place advertising on your way to or from the interview.

I tend to take my diary most places so this is no exception but I find it useful at interviews in case you need to check dates with them or note something down while you’re there.

Then there are a few essentials like hand sanitizer, tissues, paracetamol and mints. Just a few things I like to always carry around because I’m super organised!

I also take my passport to interviews because it is my proof that I can work, and sometimes they ask for it at interviews.

I need to take my oyster card and iPod and headphones for the journey to interviews, otherwise it would be a bit boring!

And the last thing I tend to have in my bag is water (or some form of drink). I get quite nervous so I drink a fair bit before the interview so I don’t get dehydrated or a dry mouth.
