I need a job

[SouthSwans]

Cause I need money.....

Any employers out there in Victoria who want to take on another bloke for part-time work?

What sort of work are you looking for?

 

[SouthSwans]

Casual work in almost any field really.

Best bet is to check out the newspaper and careerone, or job search or any other job website.

seek.com.au

Looks like you've got plenty of time to do the looking yourself.

Any luck so far mate?

Right now is the easiest time to get a job.

As opposed to when?

 

[de_LICA_ish18]

As opposed to when the unemployment rate is seriously high....like it was in the 90's.

There is heaps of jobs in Melbourne, you just have to show the employers that you're willing to work.

Get off your bum and have a look for yourself. Best place to look is your family's contacts.

Have you thought about why the unemployment rate is low then? Perhaps because there isn't much work available...?

I'm a little confused about what you are saying.

The unemployment rate is low now and there is lots of work available. When the unemployment rate is high, it is more difficult to find a job as you are competing against more people to get that job.

About 2 months ago I advertised for 2 Business Analysts and only 3 applications came in. If there were a shortage of jobs around I would get 100 applicants. I ended up hiring a couple of girls with basic admin experience who are now on good money (even without the experience I was after). There is no competition for jobs anymore because they are so easy to find. As a result I didn't receive the best quality of candidates. Its definitely a job hunters market.

Conversely, it may mean that everyone else is employed, so all the jobs are taken...

They're not all taken. There are thousands of positions advertised on the the job sites.

Also I wouldn't be struggling to get applicants if there weren't many jobs out there. People would be kicking the door down trying to find a well paid job like I was offering.

Try ringing anywhere that interests you from the phone book. Not everyone advertises and you can get lucky.

There are always thousands of jobs advertised...that doesn't make them easy to get...

Just playing devil's advocate.

Second the seek.com.au suggestion. Got my last two part time/casual jobs without much difficulty.

I also do footy umpiring for a bit of cash. Most sports officiating is pretty straightforward as employers are always screaming out for more umpiring stocks in most sports (it's a matter of finding out about thow they do the training etc.).

Camp Australia are always looking for new people to work in after school care. Good money and very flexibile hours! check out their website and apply online
