Help!
Posted: Tue Oct 28, 2008 10:49 am
Hello everyone,
I really need some help. I've just graduated from uni and although I am hoping to get into the RAF my OASC date is not until next month and if I pass that my entry won't be for at least three months or so. I am in serious need of a filler job for that time and depensing on how things work out perhaps a bit longer. I had a cracking little job at Chesington World of adventures but I had to leave to look after my Nana as her alzheimers took a downturn.
I have been looking for work in the basic admin office type roles but have tried to be flexible applying for pretty much anything. However, so far I have not been successful. I paid a visit to my local jobcentre plus yesterday and am convinced if hell existed thats what it'd be like (well maybe just one of the levels, Brixton council offices are just as bad). There were completely unhelpful and paid no interest in my skills or me as a person. I really really don't want to have to sign on and am prepared to work so hard in any job I end up in. I decided to see if anyone on the forum could perhaps point me in the right direction for a job in London (I got this idea after just losing out on a job because another applicant had 'contacts'). I really would appreciate any advice or hot tips! (please don't suggest employment websites I have probably got them all covered).
If anyone can help at all feel free to PM me or leave a message here.
Cheers
