Progress Report to Option 1: My attempt in finding a job

Progress to "Option 1 - Find a job"

i.) Searched online recruitment websites

I've signed up to:
general job recruitment site
Monster.co.uk,
Fish4jobs.co.uk,
Jobsite.co.uk,
Planetrecruit.co.uk,
PurelyIT.co.uk,
mywestmidlandsjobs.co.uk,
Temping Agency
Katiebard,

Probably a few more but I can't seem to remember or find their info on my email archive. and the best I've done so far was to get rejection emails! it totally blows!!

ii.) Walk in to recruitment agencies and hand in a copy of my CV.

I've also went around to the temping offices and oddly about 70% of them are so not face to face friendly they bloody tell me to go online and register instead. 29% takes my CV and I never hear from them. Here's the 1%, the other day tho, I went to Randstad and handed my CV to them and they booked an appointment to see them again for today to register... I went and get my details into their database. The dude and some of his colleagues were nice.. had a few leads they said they would try for me... encouraging progress but does that mean they'll find me work.. he said he'll keep in touch every Friday.. only time will tell...
