    A lot of my friends seem to easily get a job but whenever I look for a part-time job online they're mostly permanent. Very, very few are temporary and the majority of the time I lack the experience to be able to apply for it

    E.g. my friend got a saturday job at Iceland but when I looked at their website there weren't any temporary jobs available at all...Should I keep looking online or visit the shops themselves and ask?

    Do both! You don't need much if any experience for a supermarket, it's more about pushing what you have done and making it relevant to the work ie. communication, organisation, stuff like that.

    A lot of firms now advertise online but a lot only advertise the senior vacancies online. Try asking in store if they have any shop assistant roles instead.
