Coogee Job Hunt

The job scene was a whole other story. Every day since arriving in Sydney, we had been on the internet sending off CV’s to any job we could find. We must have sent hundreds between the three of us, all looking for different types of jobs, and only had about two call backs between us.

It was very frustrating. Then Jason got a number from someone he knew over here and he sent his CV in to that person. She worked really hard to find him a job. He got a half days work first but then she found him something in Insurance full time. I gave my CV to Jay to give to them and they passed it onto their Finance section and now a girl in there is looking for work for me. She seems to be making an effort and said things are looking positive.

Jimmy, who has no money left at all, is having just as much trouble looking for work. He has had a couple of days of furniture removals but nothing concrete yet and we are due to pay two weeks rent on Monday to cover the Christmas period.
