up (抢夺) quickly. So although we shall do all we can to help you, it"s important for you to do all you can
to help yourself. This passage tells you how.
Registered for work
Once you have registered for work we will match you against available (可获得) vacancies. You must
also register for work at the Job Centre in order to claim (demand) unemployment benefit. But you can
actually apply for benefit at the local Unemployment Office.
Getting a job through self-service
Jobs that come in are put on self-service show as soon as possible. Half the people who find jobs through
Job Centres and Employment Offices find them through self-service. You can call in at any time to look at
the jobs shown.
If you want further help with finding a job
If you want more help or advice, don"t forget that"s what we"re here for. Our Employment Advisers can
help you with things like:
*thinking about the different sorts of jobs you could do and which are best for you
*jobs available locally or elsewhere
*your suitability for a JOBS training course with a tax free allowance (津贴)
*grants (补助金) to help you look, and move to, work in other parts
Even though you have a clear idea of the sort of job and pay you want, you may find that something
different will suit you quite well. Keep this in mind when you"re talking with the Employment Adviser.
If you don"t find a job on your first visit
Go into self-service as often as you can to look at the jobs on show there. Good vacancies are coming
in all the time that have just been registered for employment.
