More around 100. I dont do facebook.

What i meant though was i dished your photo around lieth docks and managed to pull in 1000 punters on the pretense you would be looking for a job soon enough

On a more serious note. I would try advertising on Gumtree locally. And do knock the doors as this can be a more direct way. No-one reads CV's anymore.

I picture you working in Boots for some reason. Thats the pharmacy.

Not down lieth docks

doubt you'd get much, bunch of tight fisted ~~~~s in Scotland

ok as many fritters and pickled onions as you can eat

Be prepared for loads of knock backs.... It is definitely an employers market out there at the minute. But keep positive and keep trying.

Call centres are always good ways to get back into work as well.

Good Luck!!!

I help people to get back into work as part of my job, and knocking on doors is only good for small businesses,
all major companies don't do cold calling anymore, they will direct you to there website, if you don't believe me, next time your in Asda/Tesco etc ask about current vacancies and see what they say.
and of course your going to need a CV, try applying for a job without one and see how far you'll get

I was helping someone to apply for a warehouse job a couple of weeks ago, the company got over 250 applications for 2 jobs, so a good CV is imperative.

just put on a foreign accent

[RedSpider]

i've got plenty of ironing that needs doing.
i don't pay much.
infact, i pay ~~~~ all.
but it'll help keep you busy when the lack of jobs around starts to depress you

chelsea its not easy trying to get a job these days.

re childcare costs. depends on garrys wage but there is a child care element of child tax credit but i have no idea how much it is etc.

there is certainly a lot of vacancies in the care industry but a lot are random hours. is there something like working links near you?

there were job vacancies for eo grade in the dwp a couple of weeks ago and 61000 put in for them!!!


there will be ao posts coming on soon and if you are interested lmk - there are part time ones avail and thats very unusual. im an oa grade and work part time of 30 hours.

pm me if i can help you.

You one of the guys that sits at the jobcentre pointing a tradesman at a job wiping old peoples bums. If so then your wrong.

I have never found a job through a jobcentre advisor. I HAVE always found a job by phoning companies from the house or starting with an Agency and then going full time.

seems a lot of hassle for a job, why dont u just see if garry can get a second job to keep u in the lifestyle ya accustomed to cb
