This is going to sound really stupid. I'm not a thick person, but I don't actually know what jobs are out there. I'm looking at training to do something proper - more of a career than just being an office girl - but I don't know what sort of jobs there are to choose from. I'd like to help people instead of working to make profit for a company. I'm good at sticking up for people if they are being treated unfairly... I'm good at Maths and Stats but not Science or Humanities. I can speak French and German to AS Level. The type of things I'd be ace at would be working at the c.a.b or fundraising for a charity but they're volunteer type jobs and we need a wage coming in... Does anyone know of a way to get job advice, or download those "perfect job" softwares they had at high school? I can't for the life of me remember what they're called. Thanks all, and sorry for the randomness. x
Not all CAB staff are volunteers...I have done paid admin support with them, so you could do something like that so you get a feel for the advisory industry?
Not all charity work is un-paid either, my friend works for a charity called Leonard Cheshire that helps young disabled people, he organises events and trips for them and is pretty well paid!!
I know the software you mean - I use it at work but have to sign in and out - I don't know any that are free to use. Have you tried local connexions? They should have it. CAB advisors - we got someone a job there recently - and it is paid and he didn't have any real experience - he volunteered for a few weeks and then got a job offer.
Somewhere on this site: http://www.prospects.ac.uk/cms/ShowPage ... /p!edcaefX there's a job profile thing, you fill in the sorts of things you like, and the qualities you have and it gives you a load of things to consider and how to get into them. I used it years ago, so hope it's still there.
