Well done, hope the new job goes well and you get the hours you want.

The DirectGov page for JSA states:

If you've claimed JSA in the last six months and none of your circumstances have changed, it should only take around 15 minutes for you to claim online.

Thank you very much for all your kind comments and words of wisdom/advice.

The place where I am at, are very happy to keep me on as cover for various roles that I am qualified for and are happy to provide a reference for me, if I ever apply and get shortlisted for interviews in the future. This means, I will get experience directly in my field as well as gaining experience, skills and knowledge around the area that will benefit me in the long run.

Basically, I can now focus on applying for the job roles I really want and not just anything, as long as this work becomes regular and I communicate my unavailability in advance to be able to get someone to cover myself.

Hoping this is the spark that sets everything in motion.

Thank you once again :cool:
