job hunting
 
i want a new one but being in construction I've never had to search as its all word of mouth, i do the whole "randomly sending you CV off to companies with a letter" thing but it can only get you so far

anyone know of other things?

apart from responding to adverts I can't think of much else.

What trade are you? Things are still far from good in the mainstream construction industry.

Do agencies not have any work?

joinery

I've tried agencies before but it was all first fix chippying.... the way things are going im going to have to either retrain or go self employed, both have their downsides at the mo

Job hunting sucks. if a lot of your work is word of mouth then being self employed could be the way forward as Specialone says. You can please yourself then.
