I Need a job

Hey, I'm really struggling to find a part time job, I need to save some money, for an upcoming trip, I'm 17. Would really appreciate any advice that would help me land a job, I really don't mind doing any type of job, retail, catering etc. I've been applying on indeed, break room, and on company websites, but keep getting rejected.

Try going into stores and asking them. If you need to save money, try NS&I Bonds, they've helped me. Hope this helps :smile:

It's a bank account. Each £1 you put in has a 1 in 21.000 chance of winning a prize. Accounts can have a minimum amount of £25 and a maximum of £50.000. The interest everyone's accounts you would normally get isn't given to you, instead it is placed into a big prize pool where you have a chance to win prizes from £25 to £1.000.000.

Try mcdonalds. They take on a lot of students. You apply on the careers section of their website.
Other fast food places take on students as well.
