Else wear a very short, tight skirt. Black. And stockings. And high heels.

I've explained to him this may not look professional and I also get interviewed by women, but he doesn't quite get it
On the job front, I've managed to find something else online in my local area to apply for, doesn't pay much but actually my skillset so will help me eventually if I apply for other work in London. Now I just need to get it.Comment

Its hard time!
Pay extra attention to the job description.
Write down things that you like to talk about during the interview (take them to the interview or review them prior to the interview).
Read more about the interview questions.
Since you already able to secure a few interviews this shows that you are capable of doing the job (as per your CV!) So try and identify why they are keen in interviewing you and be good at selling yourself!
Learn from your mistakes!
Do research on job hunting in recession.Comment
