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.

Sorry to hear this.
Please may I suggest the following organisations .

These are all charities and organisations often wanting people to work for them.
The first one is an agency . Supportive of our community.
Please can I also ask it depends what you wish to do as a career.
Many organisations, charities if you have a disability or condition or illness have their own employment services.
Need staff reason mentioned those.
Please one other look at volunteering. Your local community volunteer unit. Contact your local Council.
Often volunteering lead in to employment.
Please if I can help anything further please get in touch.
Please take care.
