This is will be a long post![]()
I commence university at the end of February and am looking forward to getting back into higher learning. Although i'm happy about returning to uni, i'm not having much luck finding a part time position. I was informed that i'm unable to reduce the hours for my present position to part time 3x's a week. They did for someone else a while back
I don't want to be rude but it's come to my realization that "part time" for office related positions only go to housewives with kiddies at school. Part time in Western Australia means 10am-2pm m-f. There are few offers of job share etc. What is it with employers? *shakes head*
I don't want to work in an contact centre nor any other crap position. Grrr..
We aren't going to be worse off financially if I can't get a position right away. I just think I should be contributing to the job market. My schedule allows me to work mon, wed and thurs. I've registered with two reputable recruitment co's & am fully aware of how hard it might be for them to sell my CV to an employer.
Anyways, i've been wondering wether or not it's just worth picking up another class and forgetting about work this semester?
It's been 10yrs since I completed uni and am under no illusion about how difficult it'll be. I've made many contacts with planning firms, lobby groups, membership with PIA (planning inst of aust) etc and can see there are many opportunities out there.
I'll stop for now but have more thoughts to throw out there..
Thanks
