well that was my umpteenth interview today, really thought I had it in the bag but no they had someone already set up for the job. Its now 6 months, my JSW runs out next week and Im getting to a state of despair. All I want is a fecking job!!!!! Im really getting fed up trying so hard and having the jobcentre on my case.

The rejections are pretty soul destroying, just keep in there guys.

I ended up saving them all up and had a nice wee bonfire in the back garden when i finally landed a job.

I'm feeling this too...
I'm lucky enough to be in a job just now but the pays crap and Its soul destroying so been looking for something else.
Sent away a few applications and been for a couple of interviews but nothing so far.
The interviews have gone really well and after one of them I was offered the position but the offer was then later withdrawn which made it even worse.
All the jobs I have had the perfect skill set for so dont know whats up.

Every job I've ever gone for I've always got it but now that I really want one Its not happening for me lol

Really frustrating and I really feel for anybody who is out of work and looking for a job just now.

Best of luck guys

I have two more interviews next week but they are a third of my normal pay, last week I went for a temping job in my field for £14.5k, they even rejected me for that on the grounds that as a manager I probably wouldnt stay the temp period of 4 months and was over qualified...I cant win.
Fingers crossed for yesterdays interview.

If it's any consolation, I got a job after nearly 6 months on the 19th of December.
Haven't started yet cos I'm still waiting for the stty CRB check to come back.

Feeling your pain guys.

My restaurant closed at the end of November and been on the lookout since then. Had a few interviews but nothing yet. Most frustrating is the rejections where they ignore your requests for feedback. Due a 2nd interview for one job but don't know when. It's getting to the stage where I'll need to dumb down my CV in order to go for something to tide me over. Sucks ass.
