ur definitley in ldn, bradford or some shithole ethnic city, ur never gonna get an entry level job. If u want u could do some humiliation ritual job like a cashier for minimum wage or actual slave labour in some warehouse (which u might not even get or live near one).
nah im in a small town, fuck bradford

i mean ur 16 tbf its hard to get taken for work absolutely no one is gonna take u seriously, but if u did work experience show them that, and just lock in on that job for a couple months so u can claim it on ur CV, so the next job is easier.
 
find apprenticeship, get qualification and work all in one, and get paid
 
Have you tried being born 50 years earlier in a better job market?
 
Get your grades up,your a levels will decide your career

Become brown or gay. Or both :LOL:



Jokes aside, finding a job is extremely difficult nowadays for the majority of people. The large inflow of immigrants / asylum seekers who work illegally has worsened the job prospects for British citizens. My best advice to you is to:

Focus on your grades and stay poor for now.

If you focus on money too much, your grades will fall behind you and then you will realise that you actually needed to focus on having good grades and by then you will likely be about 2 years behind everyone else. Even entry level positions nowadays require a Bachelors degree, it's a real shame. The idea of working part time jobs whilst at school and then moving up the ranks is long gone.

Thanks :)
 
Sadly u need connections my first job at 16 was from somebody I knew
 
Just gotta apply to anything and everything you cannot be picky

If you live in a university town/city with a high student population it’s over because they’ll take up all the part time jobs
