Now before you explode with excitement and make a mess of your computer just remember that these guys can only work with what you give them so if your a denser or a lazy ass they ain't going to be able to do much...i jest. With a number of of guidance counsellors in house who are available on a drop in basis, free Internet and phone access (if work related of course), access to employment and advice journals and magazines this really is a good place to pop into if you find yourself at the old employment crossroads. Located on the corner of Byres Road and Dumbarton Road, this is the local office for the west end of Glasgow and a place i have found myself on a couple of occasions for a bit of advice or even just to bounce a few ideas of someone. The staff are very friendly and helpful and the facilities are pretty good as well, even if the Internet is a bit on the slow side. So, if you find your in need of a bit of help why not pop in here for a quick chat, you might not get all the answers but a point in right direction is sometimes just as good.

Manpower was a pretty good recruitment company. My recruiter seriously hustled for me on this one…read moreparticular job and I sincerely believe it was his enthusiastic endorsement of me that got me the interview, because while it was a job I could do, it wasn't something I had direct experience in. He had me come in for a pre-interview where he critiqued my answers, which has been helpful in every interview I've had since. The only thing is, when I didn't get that job, my recruiter fell off the face of the earth. He never came back to me with other opportunities, and the jobs they have tend to either be very highly skilled or grimly entry-level, with not much in between. However...when they do have a job that they think you'll be right for, they will bust their butts to get you the interview, big you up and make sure you are well prepared and confident. It can't hurt to throw your hat in their ring if you're looking for a job.

As the work l do is unpredictable, l decided to pass the time by doing a little agency work…read more I came to Bright works to find out more about them and maybe join as a casual employee. l was met by a recruiter who came out with a A4 pad and asked a few questions most where irrelevant to the work that l would be carrying out. She asked if l had a particular qualification l had to say no as they abolished that qualification in 1992 on the pad she wrote that l had no qualifications. Little did she know that l had a degree in food management and a accountancy qualification. I was told if anything came up that they would call. There was no word of checking a c.v to match skills to a particular job or a reference.

I don't have a positive history with employment agencies. In fact, apart from Office Angels, I…read moredon't think a single one has responded to my cv. Not only did Office Angels get back to me, they also managed to secure me work for several months. Not bad, bang in the middle of the recession. I would advise anyone looking for employment to hand their cv in to the office in person rather than just e mailing it as the agents receive loads of e mails every day.

I would say that the problem with Change is that they are so enormous that any interaction with…read morethem is ultimately rushed and perfunctory. They cover a wide swath of the UK with many, many employment opportunities in several fields. This is a definite plus. But presumably because they are so big and seeing so many resumes, they tend to dismiss and/or pigeonhole jobseekers rather quickly. I applied for several jobs with them, but could never get the time of day unless it was specifically travel related, even though I met all the criteria for whatever job I was applying for. I also never received any feedback about why my CV wasn't considered, even after I explicitly outlined how I was a good candidate for that particular role. No matter what, I would get shunted over to the travel recruiters, who weren't offering anything I couldn't find myself. So, meh. They do have a myriad of employment options across the country, but they are very rigid and impersonal, and often do not get back to you.
