295651 2004-11-24 00:46:00 Hey guys, I'm looking for a job and thought I'd do the whole Job Networking thing by asking you guys if you know of any.

I'm looking for a job preferably to do with computers between waiwera and the auckland CBD.

A study by AUT shows that the last thing employers do is use and employment agency or place an ad so I just thought I'd put myself out there.

I hope I'm not breaking any PF1 rules.

Cheers

A "job with computers" could be anything from data entry, to secretary, to ISP network administrator.

Otherwise Data Entry, skills in MS Word, Excel, no payroll software exp tho.

My formal education is national certificate in computing level 1,2 & 3 and 1 semester of Diploma in IT so I am a student.

Chill is right there mejobloggs, it can be fruitful but it can also be LONG & stress full some time, & some time you get bad fruit(clients)

Mejobloggs > If you are looking for web design work for the xmas/new year holydays or for any time, try checking out: www.seek.co.nz or http:( Join these sites & get e-mail from those sites about new jobs for web design) another site you could try is: Student Job Search http://sjs.jobstuff.co.nz/

Hope this helps :) & Good luck

PS: Dont give up on you know who just yet ;)

Advertise. If you're any good there is craploads of domestic IT work out there, de-spyware/virusing machines, doing updates etc etc.

Church newsletters, supermarket boards, community papers, and once you've done a few word of mouth should sort out the rest.

I turn down a huge amount of work in Wellington because all I do all day is IT crap, the last thing I want to do outside of hours is more of the same - unless I'm gunning for a new toy then I might chuck in a day or two for extra $$.
