Hi all,

    I finally recieved my NGC certificate , Yay!!!. The job search is continuing, with many "thanks but no thanks"replies.

To improve my chances I thought about taking some days off my present job and  "volunteering" my self with a company or consultancy to get a little experience in return for free work and getting my self  "out there".

Is this a good idea? Or have anyone got any better ideas.

I am determined to get a job in health and safety and am open to suggestions.

I live in Norfolk.

Regards

Spencer

Morning.

Firstly congratulations. The NGC certificate is hard-earned. Volunteering is not a bad move. However, before you offer people who could afford to pay you a free service please look to charitable organisations and social enterprises.

Also, how about vacancies like this one: https://vacancies.prince...=32759202Gn&LANG=USA
