Wow I did some volunteering for them a few years ago and I didn't even know they did things like that. I'm going to look into it this afternoon!

Hope the interview this afternoon goes well.

Definitely get in touch, they are very helpful, especially when you aren't quite sure where to turn!

Really? They haven't been updated for 2 weeks? Which websites? I admit there are days when I can maybe only find one job to apply for (yesterday was the first day with none) but I can certainly see jobs in other industries everyday.

Nope same jobs that was there 2 weeks ago on the JC site, I use a few other ones but JC is my main one. Maybe its the area of work I am looking for which hasn't been updated in a while ( FLT ) I am just ringing around places plus agencies ( Eek at agencies ) But nothing else about really

I don't rate the JCP website (whatever it's called these days) but I have to say for my local area there is at least one or two jobs added every day Mon-Fri, just very few of them are relevent to me.

Where is it you live? I just can't believe that you use 6 websites daily and not one of them has been updated in 2 weeks...

I've sent them an email through the site, I hope they have something locally!

Are you sure your using the JCP site right, I've just looked out of interest, typing in Oldham, and there are three jobs up for today already, and about 12 jobs put on yesterday.
