If there's any vacancies, try Greggs. I worked there for several months and now my sister works there, I think it's pretty easy to get a job there

Well, I just sent off an application for a Team Member role. Thanks!

Meh, job hunting sucks.

But, I'm sure you'll have some luck soon, just keep trying.

Thanks!

Hey guys!

I'm just really confused and wondering what I am doing wrong when applying for jobs, I don't even make it to the interview stage. I'm a student, who is 18 looking for some part time work. I have about 2 months of sales assistant experience, and 2 months of volunteering experience, living in Birmingham.

I've applied too:
Boots
Body Shop
Next
Superdrug
River Island
Subway
House of Fraser
Vans
Poundland
CeX
JD
Footlocker
Tesco
Pizza hut
Costa
Starbucks
Argos
Wilko
Boost Juice Bars
Marks and Spencer
Holland and Barrett
Aldi
Lidl

I think these are the ones I remember from the top of my head, I've been rejected from about 80% of them and the rest didn't bother replying so I assume rejection.

I'm just not sure what I'm doing wrong?

Try mcdonalds.
They take on people quite a lot

I am having the same issue this year in Leeds, Last two Years I got jobs fine during Christmas working at HMV and Argos and even had multiple offers from other companies but this year I am having no luck.

Had only two interviews so far which both where this week for CPW and Pc world but apart from that nothing after hundred's of apps
