when you click apply it then asks you to select one of your uploaded cvs. it then says your app has been sent.How would you apply by just clicking apply? I have clicked on a lot of jobs and not applied for them.
That one anyway is not in London and I am not an Accountant.
your not an accountant? well near enough for the point being made. you claimed only low skilled jobs have an apply button. yes i know its not in london which i acknowledged and you didnt challenge me to find one in london anyway.0 -
be careful, dont be fooled by the nice manner. lets face it they did say they would do all the out of order things with you like make you attend more often.Update:
I have just got back from my first appointment for (Post Work Programme Support) and it wasn't so bad as I thought.
My advisor was very nice towards me as I knew him 3 years ago before I started the work programme, anyway he just told me what to expect like for example: going on courses to help get into employment, visit the Jobcentre more often, update cvs and mock interviews ete.
Also he tried logging into my Universal Jobmatch but he couldn't as I haven't give him access anyway this is the best part, he said I don't have to give him access if I don't want to as that is up to me and he said he will not force me as he said I can just fill in them Job dairy as normal and he wasn't very angry when he couldn't access my account.
He said I need to start doing more now and he also said I need to treat this as a full time Job and he said I need to contact other organisations, does anyone know what he meant by that? does he mean Job agencies? if yes then I am already registered with them.
My next appointment is on 03.12.2013 at 12.00pm

i've been told you only have to show your evidence if the appointment is on a signing day.I hope you then said you do 35 hours job searching a week like you have told us here and then produced a list of sites you use, companies you have sent spec letters too and how you look for work etc?0 -
some advisers are being sneaky and writing in the box on your agreement that you must spend a certain amount of time searching. mine says several hours per day.Jerry_Mander wrote: »Why would he, there's no legislative requirement to do 35 hours job search only a requirement to be doing all you reasonably can to find work. If it takes 4 hours each week and you've done all you reasonably can then you've complied with JSA legislation.
Don't be drawn into the bullcrap they deal out at the Jobcentre.0 -
