Ah yes that makes sense, but how could you claim JSA if your working somewhere for free? Surly then that makes you unable to get a paying job?

You can do it a slong as your either prepared to give up volunteering or as WantToBeSE says as long as it doesn't interfere then it will be fine.

All job vacancies nowadays require you to already be employed before they will consider you. Being unemployed automatically disqualifies you from any employment.

All applicants must be able to demonstrate a good level of knowledge of developing object orientated software within the Microsoft .NET Framework. Knowledge of VB.NET, ASP.NET, C#, HTML, CSS, XML, or webservices would be advantageous.

Now, it would be safe to say that if you've done a computer science degree you should have experience in some of those areas.

Of course IT jobs want some experience. IT is all about being able to teach yourself and gain your own experience.
