As in people from the borough get the first chance at interview and for a part time 'skilled' role I cant see many people applying for them to turn me down the VERY next day yet the job is still live!We’ve had to remove your signature.

It may not be your skills that are the problem but some other part of your CV.0 -

You can put in one job or 5 jobs - up to the person who is applying.

No it can't be as they have given all the jobs to the UJM and the job centre to help those who need it to apply.donnajunkie wrote: »its sad to say but it could be length of time unemployed that is the issue.
Plus they advertise all their jobs on the UJM so being unemployed should not be the reason.We’ve had to remove your signature. Please check the Forum Rules if you’re unsure why it’s been removed and, if still unsure, email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -
you misread what i said. i said length of time unemployed not simply being unemployed.No it can't be as they have given all the jobs to the UJM and the job centre to help those who need it to apply.

I cant see that being a problem for just a job at ASDA or all the people from the job centre applying have no chance and they have wasted the councils time, the JC and everyone who applied.donnajunkie wrote: »you misread what i said. i said length of time unemployed not simply being unemployed.We’ve had to remove your signature.
