Best place to job search?
Apart from job centre? They get loads of applicants it's ridiculous to even get a look in! :( Would be interested in agencies but they never specialise in what I want to do (retail/receptionist work). What else is there? Jobsite, reed, fish4jobs etc always advertise specialist jobs, never low paid jobs :mad:

NHS job site - adverts taken down after 1 day
I've noticed that several adverts I have looked at have been taken down after only a day or two advertised even when they have closing dates a few weeks in the future. Now I know they can end the advert early if they get enough suitable candidates but I really don't think after a day they've had enough applicants and the…

Relocating But Not Sure When

I think I should be applying for jobs in the new area now but my GF says that employers won't even consider me before I've moved - or at least have a definite date. I feel I've got nothing to lose by applying now but, on the other hand, if an employer were to reject me…
