I'm going into my second year of University and am looking for weekend work either on campus or in the local area. I've already applied for a job at a nearby H&M, but don't rate my chances as I've never worked in retail before. I've done waitressing and bar work before but I'd prefer to work in a supermarket, clothes shop or cinema.
To those who have got jobs in these environments- did you go get them through online applications, or by taking CV's in by hand? Online I struggle to find vacancies nearby, but I've gone into places with CVs before and they tell me to apply online, so I end up getting nowhere.
Any advice would be appreciated, as I find the whole job search thing very frustrating!
