How to claim JSA

In London this is the experience with DWP now you have been very lucky if its not your personal experience with them. You get 12 weeks of minimal hassle signing on then its sanctions & or take any job you can get even toilet cleaning (if you could even get it). Few people with an IT background will get anything outside IT as employers know you will run away from them as soon as you get another IT role.

Perhaps its because in London there are more jobs to be had?

I guess in wales its a case of there really aren't huge numbers of jobs so if someone says they can't get one they might actually be genuine.

Know what you mean. Surely no employer is going to take on someone who earns a shedload for a crappy job knowing they're going to bail shortly.

Its probably London specific they are very harsh & despite the media telling everyone otherwise there are not even that many jobs around as quite a few are duplicate ads & or already filled or fake to begin with inflating numbers.

Its very hard in London right now to find anything the IT contracting sector seems to be stagnant due to the various factors mentioned in this thread.
