One of the main differences between the 10k job and the 20k job is that the later will be expecting some employee integrity. One of the obvious interview questions will be around your current employment status and I'd certainly ask a prospective employee what they've told their boss they were doing today. Besides, should you be successful you'll be off to a bad start when they get your sickness record through and see that you pulled a sickie on the day they interviewed you...

You're being made redundant.
Just say, you have an interview.

They can't expect you to not try and find work, as they are sacking you?

They are making you redundant, tell them you have an interview Monday and so won't be in.

You have a right to time off for job seeking when you are being made redundant.If you tell a pack of lies instead of using your right you dont really deserve to get the new job IMO.
