I’ve got to admit that ive been neglecting my blogging entries recently over this hectic christmas period…I hope that everyone had a good holiday.

I’m hoping that the sentence, “Sorry there are no vacancies available at present, but we’ll keep your CV on file.” is familiar to quite a few of you and its not just me that is having trouble finding some work experience. But thankfully we’re not alone!!

Its a new year, new chances, new opportunities. Don’t get too disheartened if you efforts to find some amazing career starting experience are failing you, good things come to those who wait…this is what i am telling myself anyway. Any work experience is good experience as most jobs have transferable skills so you will find that you’ve got more than you think, its just learning how to put them onto paper.

I went to the careers service at the end of last semester, and they were a huge help. If you take your CV in they’ll tell you how to improve it and also hand out advice as to where to look for more jobs and where to apply to.

I got my most recent job believe it or not through facebook…you’ll find jobs in the most random places so keep looking and keep trying and hopefully we’ll run into some luck in 2009!
