Two Days To Find A Job
Discussion
So, a bit of an odd situation...
I have been given a strict deadline of two days to find a job. Any job. The only permaters are that it has to be somewhere in London and pay at least minimum wage. I need it so that I can sign for a flat, and a flat like this isn't going to come up again soon, and any job to keep me going would be fine for the next few months whilst I find my feet.
I have experience in a lot of low end jobs, and a degree (which will be of no use here).
Where would you start looking? Once I have a start point, I can run with it. My current idea is print a load of CV's, and hit the streets. Hopefully that might work

As above, McDonalds will probably pay slightly over the minimum wage and will always be recruiting
As a student I phoned up on a Monday morning, had a 2 minute interview in the afternoon, and started the next day Two of us were interviewed. We were asked about our studies, and would we mop the floor if asked.
It took the interviewer longer to bring the drinks over than the discussion

Simple leftfield answer for you.
Go to the Companies House website, and set yourself up a Limited Company with you as the Director.
No-one can legally argue that you don't have a job. You now have your own company.
Drink beer and enjoy the weekend and your new flat.
You're welcome
Put 200 quid into the account, pay yourself via the PAYE software for small businesses. Go to the Companies House website, and set yourself up a Limited Company with you as the Director.
No-one can legally argue that you don't have a job. You now have your own company.
Drink beer and enjoy the weekend and your new flat.
