grrrr
Don't it really get on your tits when you apply for a job, give it your best and you don't get it. Gives you a proper "im retarded" feeling.
Got my mum and my missus nagging me 24/7 to get a job, but i'm not now i've just decided, im going to be a unpaid retard for the rest of my life lol.
nah i really don't know, i've wanted to do my own web-design business for ages ( www.joshcraddock.com) but i just can't be arsed and ain't got that self motivation to do it.
Anyone else here jobless and bored?

Too young to go on the doll lol,
My mum did my CV, it's when they look at my GCSE's and that.
The jobs i've applied for don't exactly need those though..

When you get knocked down - get back up again! when you dont get the job, ask for reasons why - which will help you improve interview techniques etc an will identify weaknesses - which you can work on e.g brush your teath lol!
I know it gets you down but just keep applying. im currently doing a work placement for my uni degree and i had to apply to about 14 places before i even got taken seriously...then you get phone interviews and proper face to face interviews..can take ages!
But i would say just keep applying for jobs and dont give up

Hopefully it will be done today!
Thanks guys

If youve got shite cvs dont mention them for example put '3 GCSEs c and higher.'
If easy to fiddle with it, youve got to sell your self. And yeh ask for interview feedback everytime.
