As uni has come to a close, and i'm still working part time at ASDA. I want out of this crappy job and want something that would involve a half decent salary (as it wouldn't be permanent, only for a couple of years) maybe 13-16k or more. I would like a job where it's 'shirt and tie' and varied, helping people with problems etc. I'm just not very good at looking for jobs and there's nothing i've found that's caught my eye. I will be qualified with a COMB HONS English Lit and Language degree (providing i graduate). Can any of you people think of something that would fit the above criteria, and that i'd be qualified for? I need help, as i want to start applying. Any help/info would be muchos appreciated guys

You don't pay any fees, they get comission from the companies that use them.

No fees mate. Look for one where the company pays the agency.
I just went to a local one in our town centre.
