...cos I've been hunting for a while now, with no luck. :confused:

I'm a 22-year old male with a 2:1 in Sociology, an MA in marketing and all my own teeth. I'm looking for a job in the Bristol area: it could be relevant to my qualifications, but I'm equally open to irrelevant-but-interesting positions.

I just thought I'd stick a post up on the off-chance anyone has heard of anything suitable; I'm fairly well up on the jobs offered on graduate/uni websites, but I also know that the best jobs often get snapped up before even making it to that stage, so I'm appealing to your insider knowledge! If anyone has any suggestions then please reply here or PM me- if this thread sinks like a stone however then I guess I'll have my answer. ;)

Thank you guys, for the job suggestions and the sideshow bickering... ;)

Ironically enough i'd looked at both those job earlier today; the marketing one did look interesting, but further investigation revealed that they wanted someone with more experience than yours truly. A shame.

With regard to Callie's (perfectly reasonable) comment, I left my first post deliberately ambiguous as I didn't want to rule anything out, and I'm going to stick to my guns on that one. Keep the suggestions coming folks! :)

Oh, and there's more truth in this statement that I like to admit... :o
