# EGG HEADS
Slight TJ: Im applying for graduate jobs, I know they like you to big yourself up, but do you think they'd prefer honesty or just "look at me I am so great"?

# Yes, and basically none of the places I actually want to work at are hiring graduates
So unless I want to try and do something else which would mean focusing on what I have been for the past 2 years pretty useless

# difficult one innit..
Depends on the place you're applying for if the company ethos is a bit more "out there" "wackiness" a different approach could be beneficial.. also it can help you're application stand out from the rest.

but it can equally make it all go tits up :D

I'd say do the honest approach but don't over do it.

# When they ask questions like "Why do you want to work for Atkins"
I dont think I should write,

Because where I really want to work are not employing graduates due to the fucking recession so Im applying for anything so I can do that for a couple of years then leave and aspire to the career I really want to do.

I doubt that will go down well :D
