    Hello.
    I am 19 years old and I have just finished my second year at college and I am currently in search of some summer employment but at the moment it is very difficult.

    Could any users with experience recommend any good or reliable websites which may help me search for some vacancies, especially those who cater to the younger demographic?

    I know of some websites but not many and any which somebody could recommend would be extremely helpful, thank you.

    What type of job do you want? Office, retail, manual etc

    I would do up my cv, get someone else to check it for typos. Call into every business that fits the bill in your local area. Dress smartly.

    Tell EVERYONE you know that you are looking for work. You'd be suprised how many people this will amount to. Your friend's dad's neighbour might just need someone for the summer to work in their business.

    Call into all the places that have high seasonal demand particularly.

    I wouldn't think websites are the best for short term work.
