Help finding a job

Does anyone know of any resources to help unemployed migrants? Almost everything I've found is either information on how to claim benefits or requires you to be in receipt of benefits to get the help, but obviously I can't get benefits, so... But I really need help finding a job, because I haven't yet found one on my own and we've run out of money.

Hi ptork--

I'm really sorry that you haven't been able to find a job yet.  It sounds like a really lousy situation.

Have you been in touch with the National Careers Service?  I met with one of their advisers while I was searching for work.  While I didn't find my current position through them, I appreciated some of the guidance they gave me.  They also do telephone consultations and the option of webchatting.

Hope this helps: I'll be thinking good thoughts for you.

If your partner is British, s/he may be eligible for benefits / tax credits on their own to top up income.

You could also contact your local debt / money advice service to look at budgeting and reducing outgoings.
