    I have found thestudentjob.com to be a pretty good site. Got to work in the Brit Awards and some football matches through them

    Is there any website you'd recommend in particular if im looking for a job that lasts the next couple of months before Uni? I've tried the typical, handing out CV's and such already with no luck!

    Sometimes Gumtree, can be good for finding part time stuff but it's a bit hit and miss. They have regional ones so your mileage may vary depending on where you are.

    I also found this website the other day that has information about mystery shopping and promotional work jobs. Again, they can be a bit hit and miss but they are good for a bit of part time cash. There's stuff on there about medical trials too, they pay very well but I'm not sure if I want to get involved in that sort of thing!

    I quite like Indeed.

    It's a job search engine which covers many other sites.

    Have a look at FieldStar. www.fieldstar.org
    It's free to join unlike some other promo work websites. Some interesting jobs on at the minute. I think once you join they email you with new jobs available and I actually pay the £3 a month professional membership so that I can use their online cv and cover letter templates.

    Reed, jobsite and totaljobs are the best ones, monster is probably the worst (unless you live in London) other sites: Daily info in Oxford, plusone perrsonel in oxfordshire.

    Re: Websites for finding a job
    My advice, if you're looking for a job, is to look at one type of work, so, for example, retail or hospitality, it's better to choose the type that you've got some experience in. This way you can tailor your cv or application form to suit this type of work. That's what worked for me, good luck

    I just had a look on reed.co.uk.

    They show the number of applicants who have applied for each vacancy so far. Just... wow.

    The only job relevant to me was a sales assistant... 89 applications. :mad:
