Guest MattP Posted 2 January 2013 Posted 2 January 2013 I really hope so. Great to see some real imagination when looking for work. http://employadam.com/index.html
Zingari Posted 3 January 2013 Posted 3 January 2013 He needs to learn to synchronise his voice with his lips before anyone will want to employ him .
Adster Posted 3 January 2013 Posted 3 January 2013 Someone should get me one You should get yourself one.
Lamby Posted 3 January 2013 Posted 3 January 2013 You should get yourself one. Easier said that ****ing done
Guest MattP Posted 3 January 2013 Posted 3 January 2013 Easier said that ****ing done Out of interest, how many CV's did you send out last month?
I am Rod Hull Posted 3 January 2013 Posted 3 January 2013 I really hope so. Great to see some real imagination when looking for work. http://employadam.com/index.html There`s plenty of warehouse jobs @£6.20 a hour he could apply for, it looks like he can use a PC so he`d be ok in goods-in.... But he`s probably far too intelligent to do that kind of thing.
Lamby Posted 3 January 2013 Posted 3 January 2013 Out of interest, how many CV's did you send out last month? 19. Did 21 in November and done 4 so far this month. They're done in weekly/2 weekly batches
Parafox Posted 3 January 2013 Posted 3 January 2013 19. Did 21 in November and done 4 so far this month. They're done in weekly/2 weekly batches Good luck but I can't help thinking you must be running out of places to send them.
Guest MattP Posted 3 January 2013 Posted 3 January 2013 19. Did 21 in November and done 4 so far this month. They're done in weekly/2 weekly batches and you have had nothing back? You have either been very unlucky or you might need to think about lowering your standards.
Parafox Posted 3 January 2013 Posted 3 January 2013 and you have had nothing back? You have either been very unlucky or you might need to think about lowering your standards. Perhaps not writing in crayon would help
Lamby Posted 3 January 2013 Posted 3 January 2013 Good luck but I can't help thinking you must be running out of places to send them. Just applying for ones online, most shops or that don't advertise in shop now and you have had nothing back? You have either been very unlucky or you might need to think about lowering your standards. Well had an interview from McDonalds from my November lot and that was about it. Going for admin or any trainee stuff I thought I already had that title
Kyle_Le_Don Posted 3 January 2013 Posted 3 January 2013 Macdonalds turn you down? How much do you weigh just out of curiosity?
Parafox Posted 3 January 2013 Posted 3 January 2013 Macdonalds turn you down? How much do you weigh just out of curiosity? I really haven't seen that many obese employees at MacDonalds, assuming that was the point you were trying to make. In my limited experience they tend to be young average people.
Lamby Posted 3 January 2013 Posted 3 January 2013 Macdonalds turn you down? How much do you weigh just out of curiosity? Correction, they didn't undertake the interview process as outlined in the email, not my fault

Fox92 Posted 3 January 2013 Posted 3 January 2013 Is it really that hard to find at job in London, Lamby? I'm from a small town where there seems to be no jobs, but I moved to un at Manchester, a major City, and there are better options (obviously). Thought London was where its at in terms of finding work, but I suppose our society is poor.
Finnegan Posted 3 January 2013 Posted 3 January 2013 Marsh has semi beat me to it. I wouldn't employ that kid on the grounds he looks like an absolutely massive hipster.

You'll have a higher chance of gaining employment and look more willing.
Captain... Posted 3 January 2013 Posted 3 January 2013 Have you got someone to check over your cv? Places with lots of applicants can often dismiss a cv just from a quick glance because it looks shoddy and unprofessional, likewise a covering letter or a photo, you can't polish a turd, but you can at least shave it put it in a shirt and do its hair.
Rincewind Posted 3 January 2013 Posted 3 January 2013 Thats true. I put my age on a CV and it goes straight in the shredder. If I was to put a photo of a super-model I may have a better chance of at least getting a reply. I'd struggle though at the interview to look like my photo.. Seriously it is hard with so many going after each job but for somebody Lamby's age there is a little more scope. He has longer to be trained if he finds out what he wants to do.
LcFc_Smiv Posted 3 January 2013 Posted 3 January 2013 How about you get off your arse and walk into recruitment firms or businesses and see people face to face. You'll have a higher chance of gaining employment and look more willing. What's more face to face than walking in to a company/business, asking if they have any work going and handing a cv over? I mean I'm only a student and never been in to a recruitment firm, but I'd like to think I've been far more willing skipping the middle man and going into places and talking to the manager there about any vacant positions.
