What qualifications do you have? What skills can you offer a potential employer? You need to sell your self these days to employers, or they are not interested.

education, education. education.

As I was scrolling down - the same thought occured to me.

Type up your C.V - photocopy it with a neatly written covering letter and hand it in to as many shops etc as you can. Employers will appreciate you using your initiative.

when i was in 6th year, somone else in my year had a job at a bakers. he was alittle tired (did all the work in the mornings) but it left his evenings free to do as he wanted.

Pennyland Service Station was looking for staff last time i was in. Really good place to work at. One of the best employers I've had so far in my opinion.
