Hi all,
Just wondering do any of you will be jobseeking over the christmas period and new year?
What if you don't apply for Jobs like on christmas day and Boxing day? could Jobcentre sanction anyone who has not applyed for any Job in them days?
Well Yesturday (24/12/2012) I went on universal Jobmatch and there is no Jobs on at all to apply

Why would anyone need to apply Christmas day or Boxing day ? Isn't the criteria X number of jobs in a week ? There's five other days in the week.I Would Rather Climb A Mountain Than Crawl Into A Hole

There are new jobs going live on the net every day and I have applied for 3 already today plus chased up ones I have applied for over the last week. I have got my automated emails from sites like Reed, Totaljobs etc all having new jobs on there.

Take a break & do anything, anything at all.I am? A break to do what else?

It's not healthy sprending too much time virtual job seeking disconnected from real world, going over & over same routine.
As the DWP/Jobcentres will no doubt find out in due course, continuallly clicking away on internet is not solution to mass unemployment & not healthy if done too much.0 -
