write up a CV & hand it in to everywhere you might possibly want to work, don't forget local temping agencies! make sure you're positive, consider doing a few versions depending on what place you're applying to - emphasise computer-literacy for temping agencies, whereas for shop-work talk about how hard-working & interesting you are.

there is a legal limit for hours but you can opt out of that part of the law, once you get a job sorted speak to your employer about it

best of luck!

hey1 ive jst left my work(gt told to leave!) bt i gt �5 ph. i read on the a gov web site that the minmum wage is �3, bt i dobt an employer would giv dat little.there is something i heard about if u wnt to work part time u have to work 16 hrs, 3 (days) of say 5hr shifts. bt i agree write up a short c.v. give job centre a ring, its relaly easy bt i didnt wnt to be a chamber maid!hahah!

Perhaps you should do some work experience. You won't get paid though you may get expenses and food.

Even if you do, say, 4 weeks worth at 4 different places, get each one to write you a reference and then you'll have something to put on your CV because as you said your school exam results aren't good and though they may not be a reasonable representation of your abilities unfortunately thats all they have to go on - unless you can prove otherwise, which is where the W/E comes in.

You never know one place may offer you future work and if you choose the right companies you will have a better idea of what sort of work you would like to go into
