Being made redundant, or just being told that it might happen, can be challenging. But there are plenty of online tools to help you find a new job.
Online job searches are generally free, available 24/7 and should be one of the first places you look for your next job opportunity.
Visit www.gov.uk/jobsearch to use the Find a Job service. With Find a Job you can create a profile, upload your CV and receive email alerts about new and existing jobs.
There are plenty of other job sites available too. Try searching for ‘jobs’ in Google, or make your search more specific to find the right vacancies for you, like ‘retail jobs in Leeds’. Some of the websites which advertise jobs include:
- www.gov.uk/jobsearch
- www.totaljobs.com
- www.monster.co.uk
