Just had a reply from the umpteenth application but this time instead of just being sent on spec it was for an advertised apprentice plumber, so I think great an actual job, someone is looking for someone NOW....
So I get notified I have not even been shortlisted for an interview...great!!!!
I am 18 and have a full driving licence.
Passed my NVQ 2 Plumbing.
Passed my NVQ 2 Gas installation and maintenance.
Passed my ACS exams and Gas Safe registered.
Have a place on a course for 1 day per week from september doing NVQ 3 Gas installation and maintenance.
I have pretty much done everything possible since leaving school 2 years ago to get qualifications that will help me to get an apprenticeship in plumbing and I cannot even get to interview stage.
It seems that there are hundreds of applications for every job and even though most are just applying for 'any' job that comes along but once a company gets 250 letters how do you knwo yours has even been read and checked, maybe they are so inundated they do a lucky dip??????
If I don't get a job soon no dount the government will have me looking for a new training course to become an electrician...keep busy and off the unemployed figures for a couple of years.
But I get sick and tired of hearing people knock the lazy youngsters in our country....
How are you supposed to get a job
