Is this for your yr 10 work experience. Because when i did mine, i had to do 2 work experiences, and if is still like that, u might be able to do both.

Let me tell u this now. Yr 10 work experience means squat. The assignments/essay/work u have to do about them are a joke. For work experience, just say ur working in some company as a data entry assistant or some bullshit and put the phone number of the work place as your uncles or cousins; so when ur teacher calls to check up on u, ur uncle/cousin can cover for u and say yeah his doing great etc etc. And presto, u got 1-2 weeks of bludging.

its year 11 work placement or something...
i didnt get to go on work experience when i was in year 10 because they changed to policy and it was too late for me to hand in my application...
so i want to do something that i wont regret this time as it will be my last opportunity to actually try something out..

What about working in a volunteer organization !! I really want to get into adminstration (office support) roles. But, I need experience for that, and the times are not good at all in the job sector. Its even hard getting into TEMPing jobs. Im thinking of volunteering in some admin role to gain some skills and to get something on my resume !!

Any ideas if this will work out ?

I'm interested in music/science too, but I went to science (UTS) because I thought music= photocopying.

Ps. Don't work experience for SSO- its all sorting out the library and photocopying and stamping.
