I`ve been unemployed for months now and its really starting to upset me. Just got a rejection after two interviews and a marketing campaign for the company. They said i was excellent, they said it was a close call...but the other person had a little more experience. Last year i finished my A levels, neither good nor bad just B's and C's, spent a 9 months in Austria where I learnt German and had a job in a factory coming back I have been searching for a job in an office, receptionist, admin, even in retail. For the past 5 months i've been working for free to gain work experience at the hospital in admin, still thats not enough. Retail places flat out reject me for not enough experience, some website that have on-line applications wont even except my CV for the lack of experience. I even did a days work experience in some shady "clothes" shop and heard back nothing. I earn about 400 pounds a month at the moment cleaning part time,, might aswell be on a jobseekers allowance as that is literally nothing I'm able to save no money from it, i literally buy one flight back Austria month to see my boyfriend for a weekend and that pretty much more than half ends up being spent on that. It feels like a viscous cycle, cant get a job without experience cant get experience without a job as now I can no longer work for free at the hospital as the government no longer supports my travel expenses as its been so long, and i have to say i do feel like i should of been paid something after all the work there or at least a job after all those hours everyday. Anyone else have similar issues?

Locking the double thread. :)
