    :hello: afternoon been a while.

    :( No good news on the job front for DS. Had work placement with M&S throughly enjoyed his time there, got excellent feedback from M&S said if they had a vacancy they would employ him, unfortunately at that time there was no jobs.

    Fast forward to a fortnight ago and 5 vacancies appear for local M&S, did the phone ring........no of course not. Apply online computer says no :mad: oh my god will we ever get past these dam online personality tests.

    A year out of school, had 3 job interviews, applied for numerous jobs unsuccessful. Sick and tired of so called disability services they offer nothing just a lip service, it all looks good on paper but reality is a different thing.

    He no longer has any support, apart from me. :(

    :(

    I know it may not seem like it now...but the day will come for both of you. Don't give up. If you remain strong then so will he.

    You are doing a great job. Could I ask, why is it that he's getting rejected? Perhaps you could find him some voluntary experience to strengthen his CV?

    :)

    M lists (not Northern Ireland)

    Bold = new items, do not try yet: need to wait before they get picked up (unless they are buy in Ms).

    Avs M
