Geel_jire Posted March 29, 2009 horta muga hore soo dhawoow. Job prospects depends on alot of things: - Your location - Economic situation at that time (currently not peachy) - Area of expertise/Field - Who you know (that can help you get your foot in the door) - your skills in job hunting Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lidia Posted March 30, 2009 finding a job is generally tough for a student fresh out of school with no work experience. It is import to gain as much work experience in your field as you can while you are in school. I would recommend doing student work program. Good luck!

ADNAAN Posted March 30, 2009 register with these two prospects.ac.uk and targetjobs.co.uk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ms DD Posted March 30, 2009 Also apply for volunteer positions in your field That will really help you bolster up your CV Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ibtisam Posted March 30, 2009 ^^^Not true at all!! don't send her to slavery! TopGirl you need to network, believe it or not, it is who you know rather than what you know. Websites are a waste of time (the same job could be advertised over four different sites, and one position has about 300-600 applicants (this was before the recession, so probably more now), you are better off registering with four/five agencies and getting them to find something for you. I've never applied for a job in the usual manner, but the backdoor is wide enough if you know people in your field. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ms DD Posted March 30, 2009 It never hurt in my case. In fact whilst i was at uni, I was 'slaving away' for accountancy firm and straight after i graduated, got a job within 15days. But that was then, not sure nowadays. Nowadays it is hard to get foot in the door without some sort of experience. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's a SOL link, dear. You can hover your mouse pointer over any link to see what it is before you click. Brush up on your computer skills, atheer.
