will be all day training for a week, then helping at JCP for 2 weeks after..
Would they expect people to also do a full job search, on top?

If you are claiming JSA you are expected to job search and apply for jobs no matter what0

Yes. While ever you are on JSA you must job search.
Usually they only allow so many hours volunteering because of it, but when it benefits them they don't seem to care about the hours. They will still expect you to job search though and it makes sense to job search anyway because you can't possibly get a job if you're not searching and applying.0 -
hmm. perhaps I should ask to be paid then, as it does benefit JCP!Long time away from MSE, been dealing real life stuff..

lol that'll never happen. They'll probably inform you that others have done it before and there's a high success rate of people getting a job afterwards because companies like people who have worked for them, meaning it's of more benefit to you.0
