Well ive been applying for full time positions with horses since i finished my A levels in 2009 but with no success then 2 have come at once.
1) Working for a dressage rider as her groom doing general yard jobs, exercising, going with her to competitions. Offers training. Its 30 minutes away and living in could be possible however the wages are lowever then what im on now and im struggling on what im getting at the moment.
(i have an interview for this job on friday)
2) Working as a trainee groom on a busy yard where they will put me through NVQ's and BHS exams. Chance to join pony club and compete. Again 30 minutes away in the opposite direction. Live in position and there is room for me to take both of my horses. Not sure on the wage i will be on as they seemed a bit vage when i asked.
(i have an interview next week )
Im going to go for both incase im not what they are looking for. But if i am exepted for both i dont know which one will be more benificial to me? ive already worked at riding schools so that would proberbly come naturaly to me but would i gain invaluable experience working for one rider?
what would you do if you had the choice ?
