Gap Year

I'm thinking of taking a gap year. Anyone know of good jobs out there?

Really depends on what type of job you’re looking for and how much you’d like to earn. If you’re going to reapply to university next year, then getting jobs that somehow correlate with your desired subject definitely makes your application stand out and writing your ps easier xx

I should say that it's nearly impossible to get a job that somehow correlates with your desired subject without any connections at 18. Even if you apply for an easy job, you will most likely get rejected from 90%-95% of them pre-interview. I recently got a job without any interviews, but this was all down to luck. I am applying for Mathematics + computer science and getting a job or part-time job in that field is very unlikely without a degree. So, I applied for a job to get some work experience because nearly any work experience is valued and to earn some money. Right now I am on a gap year.
