Any suggestions for jobs? (1 Viewer)

[ben150891]

Hi there,
I need help. I got my first job when i was 14 at toys r us. im now 18 and they have stopped giving me shifts because i am to expensive and they would rather give shifts to cheaper people. so now im looking for a new job. I've applied for a couple of places but i havnt got any call backs. I think its because of my uni timetable, i go 5 days a week so im only available on weekends. So i think i will apply at some videos stores like video ezy and civic video since there open till 10. Do you know any other stores open around this time? I dont want it to be to late though cause i start uni at 9 which means getting up at 6:30
Thanks

Supermarkets, restaurants, some cafes, petrol stations (you could try limit your availability til 11 for the 24 hour ones), ummm movie theatres, Bunnings, that's just off the top of my head.

Can I make myself any clearer

larger supermarkets would definitely hire you with just weekend/weeknight availability.

I've always wondered what it'd be like to be a male prostitute. You could try that.

unless he has a degree and wants a 70k+ job then seek is so useless if you want to help make a suggestion

to add to what johony said:

i just went to seek and searched weekend+sydney+casual, and I found many many suitable jobs. I don't know if any are in suitable locations for the OP, but still, they are there.

RSA + RCG = pubs, clubs & restaurants = weekend and night work

 

[ben150891]

local pubs and clubs, get your rsa/rcg and being 18 you'll be the youngest and cheapest again plus friday and saturday nights are their busiest times so it would work in with uni.

Ok, so just a question. Would an asian person be less likely to be hired at a pub/club, since going to a pub/club is predominately a 'white' activity. (of course there are exceptions).

You'd need to speak english well of course.

Otherwise, not really.

yeh i have been on it and they dont rlly have any jobs suitable for students etc the best option is to check your local newspaper or whatnot
and yeh obviously i was exaggerating

I found www.jseeker.com.au to be useful, but it never found me the job I had.

But i've been checking it every week since I moved! Its real good

Restaurants are generally very flexible.
