Just scored two jobs at uni for the new year. I have to find something to do over the Christmas break though. I do want to go home though. :\

@Shadowdude: Look for jobs advertised on uni boards. They usually turn out well.

Don't think I've ever seen jobs advertised on uni boards... maybe I'm not attentive enough

while I've been in UNSW less than you and I have seen a dozen of them around. Probably should be more observant when looking at the boards (good place to start is up the stairs between quad and library)

One is as a tutor, hired by a division of the university. The other is through the Student Services. I'm keen.

We've got a sort of separate division/company that deals with it all. It's well organised. UNSW should do it too.

Show me! But that board I think the ones you're referring to are notices for textbook sales and accomodation.

lolol

i applied for at least 40 places right after uni started this year. Note that i had previous retail experience, still, not 1 single reply.

do some voluntary work at salvations army, at least you'll feel good about yourself and help the needy. And, it'll look good on your resume.
I have !!!!!!!

After reading the thread on Monday night I decided that I might as well apply for a job at my local pizza hut. And I just did an interview today and now I'm on a 2 week trial period starting next week lol.

...On another note..WHY THE FUCK is there no next or submit button for the domino's site. I feel like making a thread of job seeking website fails.
