Help no Job!

2makeit

I now have no job but am looking everywhere, tried agencies and still nothing.
How am i going to manage paying bills, if i go temping -it's 1 week to wait to get paid.

Where can i get help? as don't want to get blacklisted and bad credit rating

Any good ways of making money online? as am on it a lot looking for opportunities,etc

thanks

speak to your creditors and let them know.

Go to the Jobcentre and see if you qualify for Jobseekers Allowance. Degrading place to go but needs must.

Take the temping if it is offered as you will catch up when you have worked a week!

Surely it would be a good idea to start temping anyway. If you took a permanent job you might have to wait four weeks for your first pay and even making money online doesn't guarantee an instant income. You could be out earning in the meantime.

You need to get down to the agencies today and make sure you are registered for temping and go round every single one until someone offers you something. This is the time of year companies are recruiting Christmas staff. A lot of those jobs lead to permanent posts. You need to hawk yourself around with your CV.

Good luck.

:T hello

Yup i have been there and it is not easy :mad: but hey you must have a talent of some sort. may be you could do something small like a pet walking service or baby sitting service. Ther are now plenty of printing companies online that do special deals for under a tenner to keep you going till you find something you like. one company i know you can design on the site and it only costs around 8 quid, called flyer24.co.uk.

take care:T

I've been there in the last few months, and I applied for two jobs - now in one of them. You need to be determined and never let anything get you down...it won't come to you, you have to go out there and get it yourself.

If you aren't successful to begin with keep at it as one day you will get a job.

Don't rely simply on chasing the agencies and applying for jobs advertised online and in newspapers. Make sure everyone you know knows you are looking for work and also what sorts of things you can do.

Ask your contacts whether they know of any jobs - they may hear of them in their organisations before they are advertised or put out to agenices. If you can get in first with an application you save the employer the cost of advertising. (Of course their Equal Opportunies policy may mean they have to advertise in any case.)

For immediate work try a catering/bar staff agency. I'm leaving my job on Friday and planning to do this to make ends meet til a permanent job comes along.

You would be paid weekly and do a series of one-off shifts in different places. This of course frees up the daytime for interviews/jobseeking.
