I had dealings with the Job Centre a few years ago after being made redundant. They were only interested that I met the criteria for unemployment benefit and did nothing to actually help me find work.

Local job centre numbers are listed online.
Assuming.your location in sig is still correct Search Google for job centre Southampton. I tried to copy the link, but it didn't copy. Sent from my SM-A600FN using Tapatalk

They don't have rows of boards with jobs on apparently and suggested I was better going to a temp agency. even getting to talk to the job centre was hard work and getting to a list of jobs on line was no easier. Make if difficult and people wont work! macafee2 |

I work in a govt. Dept.and there are quite a number of agency staff employed. Signing up to an agency would be a good move, as it is in their interests to find work for you. sent from here

I should say I just want casual work. I want to be able to ring up today for work tomorrow, nothing more fixed then that. This is just to earn my "beer money"
The money will pay for my "hobby" as I don't feel it is right for me to be retired and eat into our savings or my pension while my wife still works part time. Mind you she is off to New York for a long weekend jolly with a friend of hers while I cook and clean house macafee2 Last edited by macafee2; 16th January 2019 at 17:23.. |
