poopipe Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 depends what sort of thing you're after really - the easiest way to get a job is to already have a job or know someone who can get you a job. I'd recommend going down to tesco and getting on the tills or something equally mindless for a while - it'll keep Pops off your back, earn you some beer money and look better on the CVs you send out than sitting on your arse at home. failing that You could actually do worse than going on jobseekers allowance - you won't find anything that pays particularly well or has much of a future but they do a lot of the phoning around and sending the CV work for you. It's been a few years since I was on the dole but they did actively try to find me the work I wanted when I was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eskimo Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 You are pretty much guaranteed a job with the service team. Find out where your nearest recruitment centre is and register. They will also give you jobs like picking and packing, cleaning, production line etc.Maybe your dad's just mad 'cause you left college. It was a silly thing to do to be honest. School rules compared to work.You could actually do worse than going on jobseekers allowance - you won't find anything that pays particularly well or has much of a future but they do a lot of the phoning around and sending the CV work for you. It's been a few years since I was on the dole but they did actively try to find me the work I wanted when I was.They've done absolutly nothing for me. Apart from the free money thing. I have a meeting today to see if it's actually worth them still paying me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orgun_Donor Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 Easiest and quickest way for a job, is a temping agency, fair enough, may only be a job for 1 week, then another got 2 weeks later. But still money, and if you prove you can work, may possibly land a job at the company your temping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beigemaster Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 Jobcentre Website thats where I got my current job from. Very handy website and can really help you narrow down the kind of job your after. You could also probably go on job seekers allowance, how much you get will depend of your circumstances but when I was looking they gave me £40 a week (because I was living at home). Hope it goes well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobinJI Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 I cant really talk, as I don't have a job myself. But that's from lack of trying, as I'm not really bothered while I'm still in college.If you're applying to places like Halfords, or anywhere of a similar nature with branches and stuff, then put a covering letter in, and don't address it as an application, just address it to the manager. That way they'll open it and actually read it strait away, rather than just chucking it on the pile of applications the instant it comes in the door. Might get you an interview a bit quicker. Also if you'll sink that low McDonalds will employ anyone, rapist, murderer, french,they don't care, you can't be picky with people staying on an average time of 2 weeks. haha.

PaRtZ Posted February 20, 2007 Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 thanks guys well because im 17 i went down the job cenetrand they said i have to be 18 to sign on etc.You don't have to be 18 to use the computers there though (if yours has them that is) just go looking around shops firstly and ask in them all. There IS a job going somewhere, dont be afraid to be bigheaded and say why youre gonna be a benefit to the company, but only if they ask. But seriously go into every single shop and one of them will say yes. If not you may have to travel further afield which is good but bare in mind youll probs have to ride there each morning, so dont find a job here If you are desperate for a job, then I wouldn't be too bothered what it is you end up doing, so long as its a job, its still money. Once you have a job, keep looking until you find a better one, and eventually you'll end up doing what you REALLY want to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eskimo Posted February 20, 2007 Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 You can go on JS allowance when your under 18. I was put on 'new deal' which is for like 16 to 19 year olds. You get loads of discounts as well. You can now use the new deal card on trains. So it's definatly worth doing.If you have got enthusiasm to do anything then you will ring them up along with mcdonalds and temping agency.
