Business cards is a good idea, they will be more likely to keep hold of them then! Regarding your CV it's shouldn't really be any more than 2 sides of A4, if it is this I apologise. 

 

That was my thought, but at the same time they're a lot more disposable and perhaps wouldn't sell me as much as a CV would. Yeah, it's 2 sides - 2 pages in word, but printed double sided it's one sheet of A4

Why don't you take both? And offer the CV but if they say they aren't taking CV's then offer a business card, what have you got to lose?

 

Ahh my bad!

Heard someone describe it looking for a needle in a haystack but you don't know where the haystack is. I'm sure it will get found eventually though.

Put the two together with a paper clip.

You can watch almost any channel but you can't rely on them, sometimes they work, sometimes they don't. I don't know about your subscriptions, sorry.

Quick question for anyone competent in IT.

 

I just scanned a paper document - how can I see the result on my laptop?

[Jattdogg]

Is the scaner connected to the laptop via a usb cable or something?

Typically scanners aare connected to your laptop via a usb cable. You then would have software installed on your computer that would allow you to view the scanned images.

It is possible you have a wireless scanner which would still require you to have software installed at least via my experiences.

When you say you scanned the document how did you do it? Did you just put the document in the scanner and hit a scan buttn?

Sometimes ther3 is a default directory that scanned images wil be saved to possibly without the use of "software". Do you have a folder called "my documents" or "documents" on your desktop? If so click on tht folder and see if you have a folder called scanned images or something...

Yes, via USB cable.

 

Yes, put document in scanner and pressed scan* (* I suspect this is incorrect?).

Quite fancy a summer job, maybe a few days a week doing something or other, don't mind what. I'm 16 so obviously don't have experience, and am away for two weeks from 25th of June to the 10th of July and then for 10 days in early August, which is obviously bad for an employer. Had a look online but most are looking for experience/permanent placements - what would you advise?

if its only for summer then temp work isn't a bad shout.

Go around knocking on doors offering to wash cars. Everyone likes a clean car.

Typo - unfortunately it's mainly permanent being offered.

Why are companies preferring Apprenticeships, is it just because it reduces their labour wage costs?

Somebody who is untrained is less valuable than somebody who knows what they're doing. It's not a hard concept to grasp really.
