Support Each Other In Looking For Work?

Just out of curiosity does anyone know what a level 4 airport security clearance is ? A vacancy I have just seen is requiring this.

In what kind of work tho ? I type in warehouse then choose FLT, Loader and unloader and distance is 15 mile I could be using it wrong LOL

We were confused because you said that six websites hadn't been updated.

I usually type in "all jobs" and the only criteria I have is 30+ hours, otherwise I've found I miss things I could do simply because they wouldn't be put under "Administration"

I didn't take too much notice of the job titles to be honest. I always leave that blank and just type in the city I am looking for, jobs can always come under different titles so it's best to just look through them, plus I am looking for anything anyway.

I only have to sign upto agencies anyway no matter where I find a advertised vacancy, It all just seems like a stupid pointless circle of !!!!!!!!, You find a vacancy and apply for it, The agency then tell you to come in and register so you do, You then don't even get the actual job you apply for. It's a vicious circle.

Oh agencies are a pain, I'll agree with that! But they are a means to an end and sometimes they do come through with something. I got my temp job through one and in the past have had a 3 year long job which I loved (left when relocating).

Once you have registered with the agencies it's easier, then you can apply and keep at 'em

Sadly they are the ONLY means to a end at this present time, It all depends on the area of work you do, Mine has sadly been taken over by agencies.

Registered with loads, Registering with agencies doesn't improve your chances of employment tho LOL, In theory it should but they just want your name on the books, People will say this isn't so but I can assure them it is.

Thanks for the tip. I just left the job title blank I never thought to do that before and I normally typed in the work I was looking for, There's a couple of jobs that I can apply for now, TA

I can assure you I am not lying about the jobs I have had through agencies. Neither of which were ones I applied for myself. So yes, I am the first to complain about agencies and some are a waste of space. But sometimes they come through.
