    Hi,

    Do you have an agency that you can go into to discuss your needs? Not everything tends to be on their websites.

    Sometimes that easier because they can get a better sense of what you want out of them. You sounds like you are very willing to take anything on and on that basis, an agency should have less of a problem placing you.

    Agencies do a lot of recruitment for office jobs where students get in for part time positions. Students whilst available for night time cannot be as flexible in the day as you can so an agency should find placing easier than them.

  • The nearest aldi is in Preston and thats too far to travel on a daily basis for a part-time position... I used to go to uni there so I know it will be around an hr and half on the bus and then the train... plus its a bit of deadman's shoes getting on there as its such a good job.

    I have an interview with an agency on Wednesday for a part-time admin job... fingers crossed XX

    However, I feel very hesitant as I had a job with another agency working in the NHS as a receptionist but got laid off (although they had assured me that the job was for around 2-3 months). I hate the lack of job security and ideally I would really prefer to avoid agencies. I found it difficult while I was in the job as I couldnt plan ahead.
