    Why have you left it till after finishing uni to start thinking about a job? I personally can't understand it. Lots of students atm don't seem to realise how differcult it is to get a job, the sooner they start, the quicker it will take to get that job. There's plenty of time in the final year to spend an evening a week applying for jobs. Even getting an interview which leads to a job can take a couple of months.

    I started applying for jobs last September and I've got a dream job lined up straight after my final year exams.

    ps OP Good luck with exams and applying for jobs :)

    For it to be reduced like that usually means that you've also been asked to provide further information, usually a review on a random sample check carried out around January. No response, final payment is reduced.
