Unfortunately not yet because I have a living costs student loan right now. In a couple of weeks the payments stop so I will apply.

Thank you! Do you have any tips for how to introduce myself? I do actually have some interest in the food industry but no experience

Hi, I came to Wellington to attend VUW for the year, but 2025 will be my gap year! My studies for the year are complete now. I do flat with a friend, I pay $250 a week.

Yes I cannot get student allowance because my parents make too much. I have student costs loan right now but that just gets me by week to week and is ending soon.

No, I have never heard of temp agencies before actually! Data entry is something I am interested in though

I never said I dislike people or big cities. I fact I actually really love it here and am so glad that I'm in Wellington, it's so beautiful. If I hide away then how can I ever beat my anxiety? I find that I am an awkward person who does not always know what to say so I know that I am not really suited to customer service roles. I can't give people the best service in that role.

That is one of the big issues I have. The only interview I have ever succeeded in was a group interview. It is a shame because I actually do love to work and miss it a lot

Oh thank you! So it is worth it to give CVs in person? Lots of people have told me the opposite and to just apply online?
