Another thing is if you have done various jobs, focus on your experience from the job you did that is relevant to the one you are applying for but introduce experience that might be useful in the job you would like to get. Good luck :)

Katy, I can give you the thing I tried when I came to germany to get a job.Quote:

2) Any position you think you can do, apply for it.
3) At interview, pick 2 or 3 old position/projects and when asked a question, fit this into your answers. (this is helpful as you don't have to think about so many things you did. If you know 2 or 3 really well it give focus to area of expertise.)
4) It is easy to find a job when you have a job so apply locally to work in a shop or volunteer with a charity to keep yourself busy.
Hope some of these help you
Thanks Shiv, there really helpful tips. I think monster is a great site, they have helped improve my cover letters as that was something that I was really struggling with at the start.
I am applying for everything, about 4 - 5 a day some take a lot longer than others but I am going on the basis that hopefully the sheer amount I do, something will come out of it!

I went to Wembley yesterday, not the result I was after but we were beaten by a better side on the day, journey home was a nightmare, traffic on m6 was a joke as someone thought it a good idea to have only one lane open so it took up an hour and a half to go 2 junctions! good banter though to help pass the time. Im just really hoping that Mancini will stay but all the news out at the moment it does not look promising.

Helped out at a Charity day yesterday, wasn't as bad as I expected - they put me on the BBQ and I can't cook! Cakes are about my limit. Made this cake for the day also
Also went for an Indian afterwards, so it wasn't a bad day at all.
Having to share all photos via Instagram, Facebook and Twitter at the moment, as I use my phone or iPad. I will have to follow Katy in getting a new laptop I think, as my netbook seems to be slowly giving up.
Love the cake Kim thats ace! I was put in charge of cooking the rainbows pancakes that didnt go very well either! Iv only been helping at the rainbows a few weeks but I love it! They are just Fab! Planning next terms activities next week, got lots of ideas.
I am looking into volunteering, if jobs arent going to show up for me then I need to get out the house!
I have also booked on my theory test for June 10th! So better get revising.
The new laptop is ace, how i coped with that netbook of minefor so long ill never know! it was in a lot worse shape than I though.
