Comment on degree not necessary on your CV here by Adamo
I was put on a New Deal 25+ Course by a Jobcentre ‘advisor’ who knew nothing at all about what the course was about, yet still insisted it would help me. Of course, I could have refused this ‘advice,’ but my benefits would then be stopped.
I’ve just completed the first week. I was sent to a place where it takes me 2 hours to get to and 2 to get back by public transport across London. We sat in a room with no computers and no access to newspaper job ads.
We were dictated to (badly, as she blatantly had no idea about what she was talking about) by a stroppy woman, the trainer apparently, about Cvs job application forms etc for about 2 hours each day and then spent the other 4 playing on mobile phones or sneaking out for a few smokes.
What joys will await week 2?
