**Unemployed and rejected for almost 7 months**

There's more to it. I'm not British — I'm an international student. I've got proper work experience in retail and sales back home, and I've been applying to everything I can think of. Still nothing.

What am I supposed to do at this point? Honestly, I'd take any legal minimum wage job. Just looking for part-time, about 20 hours a week, and I can do full-time from June through to the end of August if that helps. I know loads of international students end up doing cash-in-hand stuff, but I don't want to go that way. I tried it once — pay was rubbish, way below minimum wage, the work was mad busy, and I got harassed on top of it. I just want a normal, legit job that pays minimum wage. That's it.

hii im coming to the uk for an exchange in autumn, my options are:

  1. university of exeter
  2. university of sussex
  3. university of nottingham
  4. lancaster university
  5. swansea university
  6. university of newcastle
  7. university of sheffield
  8. university of bristol
  9. university of southampton

i'm looking for somewhere that has a pretty campus (e.g. large and lots of nature or nice buildings) with a strong community, vibrant student life etc

i'd like to be really engaged with the school and maybe have smaller classes or a closer/friendlier student body

also i'd like to party and drink and socialise but i don't mind if there's no clubbing if the campus is fun enough!!

i've already lived in london so i don't really want a big busy urban feel and i'm not very focused on travelling a lot every weekend
