Looking at the job centre there are a few. You get Customer service assistant, the town, company and address is with held, why do they do this? What stops me applying is the fact it could be a woman's cloths shop, New Look or the likes.

Probably because the company don't want agencies constantly phoning them touting for the business?Dont wait for your boat to come in 'Swim out and meet the bloody thing'

They need burly blokes to stack in the warehouse. Don't stereotype yourself. And a guy with a great personality sells LOADS!Debt free 4th April 2007.

I'd look out of place, a big burly guy stuck in New Look or Vogue.
A lot of these stores sell guys' clothes too, especially the bigger stores. And so what if turns out to be women's clothes or similar - go for it!

Many jobs advertised on direct gov dont give alot of information out I have noticed.:footie:0

Out of interest - if you are on JSA or even just jobless at the moment surely you should be allowing the employer to decide if they want you rather than turning jobs down at this early stage?0

It could also be because they are putting through someone on long term sick through the capability route and don't want to make it obvious they are recruiting for their existing role before they have formally been sacked...0

If it were a clothes shop where you'd be out of place I dare say they wouldn't even offer you an interview.Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily Dickinson

OP, if you are looking at jobs on Direct gov just scroll down to where it says additional information then click on transport direct, the door to door planner pops up then you can see the postcode for where the job is.
You can either click find on map or google the postcode and hopefully that should help you know where the job is.It's better to regret something I did do than to regret something that I didn’t. :EasterBun0
