No one is willing in general to give me a chance, despite a glowing CV, references etc

Hello, my name is Alex Wardle, I am a third year university student who is set to graduate in May of next year and my question to all of you is this. It seem that no one is willing in general to give me a chance when it comes to a part time job despite a glowing CV, references and character descriptions. Please advise, many thanks.

Hi @AJWardle - Welcome, Alex, it's nice to 'meet' you. I hope my friend thespiceman's links give you hope in different things to consider. What are you studying?

Thank you both for your help and advise upon this. I was at my wits end. Merry Christmas to you both and I hope wherever you are that it is a good one with lots of laughter and a peaceful time. I am studying film

Hi @AJWardle and a very warm welcome to the community! I imagine this is very frustrating!

Scope have a Support to Work programme which you might find helpful.

These work and career Scope articles might also be worth looking at too.

Please do let us know how you get on.
