It's a shitshow quite frankly and it feels really degrading, so be prepared to test the limits of your mental fortitude. Unfortunately, it really is a case of apply to as many places as possible, get ghosted by 90+% of them until you eventually get something. Be prepared for it to take a while. My friend has been looking for over a year now, and it is just brutal. Not what you wanted to hear, I'm sure, but worth knowing now before you go in.

Ah mate it does my fucking head in.
Upload the CV and then fill out a form with pretty much the same info on the CV.
I use Glassdoor for applying jobs in the down season - I work building bars at festivals in the UK so most of the new work I bag is word of mouth, and usually March - Sept.
During the off, I just use Glassdoor and the 'quick apply' option.
Bearing in mind this is glassdoor.es so I'm not sure if the UK one has a different format?
Depends on your field as well
Your best bet is leads from people who know you. Reach out to everyone.
They seem to want both. Application form so they can filter you, then a CV for the interviewer to have Infront of them in the interview(s)
Doing the work to update your CV means you can mostly copy/paste segments into the forms though.
(Knowledge more from tech job hunting - unsure about other industries)
Do people use CVs? In my day it was unheard of, it was pure application forms even for senior jobs
Do you need to sign on whilst looking?
gov.uk for universal credit.
They have their own in-house job portal and there's other websites such as indeed.co.uk and glassdoor.co.uk
Update your CV, you'll be uploading it and filling out a date few online applications.
You're on Lemmy so I'm fairly confident you can use some sort of a computer
That's probably a sensible way to use a pi, I use mine for batocera. :)
Oh, my heart goes out to you. I came out of a loving 3 year relationship, and the disentanglement process was so long and complicated I still feel the repercussions of it years later. I can't even imagine what separating with someone you shared 12 years with feels like.

Hmm. That was ten years of my twelve-year marriage. I've tried hard to forget that decade. I think I still have a few pictures around here, somewhere.
Also how stunning was Charlie Dimmock. God I had such a crush on her. Something about that cheery confidence, fiery mane, and refusal to conform to soceity's standards.

What man, woman, or vegetable could tame her fiery spirit?
I hadn't heard of that particular group before, but your post called to mind BLDGBLOG by Geoff Manaugh which covers that type of stuff with that sense of humour.
Sure enough, one of his posts references anArchitecture and has a link. Sadly, looks like the site is gone but hopefully this helps you find an archived copy.
The whole soundtrack is really worth a listen:

This sounds very cool! Unfortunately, I've never heard of this before ...
Getting excited for the move to Weymouth next month. Last time I was in town an old guy told me to knock on his door if my wife gets the job, I hope he hasn't forgotten. Anyone in the Dorset area who would take a pint from an American? Hit me up, I'm friendly as fuck.
Good call and thanks.
Just some friendly advice: Consider changing your card's bank's password.
Years ago I had my Barclaycard account compromised, someone disabled paper statements, changed my password and bought loads of toys.
I pay my card manually monthly and couldn't log in (I use keepass, so I knew it was the correct password)... phoned Barclaycard and got transferrd to their fraud dept. they asked a few questions to verify me and then were really good and going back through all the stuff I'd not bought.
As they'd obviously gained access to my account details, not just cloning the card, I changed all my banking passwords and put alerts on transactions larger than I normally spend.
We have 2FA nowadays, but still, I don't trust the website security and I definitely don't use banking apps.
Yeah. All sorted thankfully.
Scary they got through without you authorising though.
I've found:
Nationwide (bank not credit) trigger happy on blocking card which can be a pain sometimes buy saved me this time.
My asda credit card I've been caught before and had to claim it back which wasn't fun and lots of hoops to jump through.
I'd tell you how my marks and spencers credit card was buy I don't use the bloody thing. The android app refuses to run as I have a FOSS keyboard so never bothered to even put the thing in my wallet and register it.
Ah damn, hopefully they refunded you the transactions? I spotted two dodgy transactions on my credit card and had to raise it with my bank. Luckily I got the money back but it's concerning that they got through at all, without me having to authorise the transactions!
Suspicious activity on my bank card at 2am (while I was asleep) and I noticed all the messages from the bank after I got up and was already on the way to the hospital for a (planned) xray.
Sorting this crap out now but later setting up a pi hole so that should be fun at least!
I'd like to have my Monday off as a gaming day but ho hum
I was like I know this, I'm gonna comment before anyone else can. But you got me.
That's lemon sherbert
Picture for reference, they have different flavours also like orange or green apple.
Two potholes and one just out of the blue on the motorway. It does seem statistically high, agree.
You are bloody unlucky to have 3 tyre punctures in the last little while! In 20 years of driving, I've had 3 punctures. Are you purposefully driving over sharp gravel or am I particularly lucky?!?
Looks like the kind of plugs you get for tubeless tyres on bikes, which I guess makes sense on account of how care tyres also are tubeless.
