Well I didn't know where to post this, so this place will do :)

I'm currently looking for a Job, but I don't know where's best too look? I'm kinda new to seaking for jobs, as I'm lazy.. and well I have had everything given to me.
I know online is best for most things, but is it best for seaking for jobs? or is it best to ask in shops etc..?

+Rep for any help :)

Ask in stores or send them copys of your CV via post.
Usually local papers have a day of the week where they publish local jobs :)

Yea, we have allot of electrical stores nearby, which I wouldn't mind working in, as I enjoy things to do with technology :P
Ill have to find out which date they publish local jobs, as we don't get paper :P


Jobcenter website?

Do spend time on your cv, it represnts you until they decide to give you an interview... so make it intresting and not just pure facts, make it slightly different you'll find that reading the same old thing bores the manager of whereever you are applying. mention dedication to jobs, teamworking skills and the willingness to learn new things

and for places to look, try your local paper they'll always be somewhere looking for someone like you, you just have to find them!

on your CV, some one told me to make your CV stand out.. not too much, but something which will make them notice and remember your CV. Like a different coloured paper (Light colour, not real dark)

My dad uses and lives on Job Serve and he's used it for years, however he is unemployed so maybe it isn't that great LOL.

If you are after a part time job then CV's are no help whatsoever, well not for me anyway. I got 0 replies for them.

Your best bet would be to check shop windows and ask inside for vacancies, go down to your local connexions and ask for job vacancies, or print applications forms from the internet and hand them in. Supermarkets usually have vacancies.

I recommend that. If you ask around places, get application forms then hand them in. You stand a better chance doing that then handing in a CV.
