I left university in 2020, with a degree in English language and Linguistics. Covid hit and finding a job became increasingly harder to do, without the benefit of receiving UC, I was eligible to apply for a Kickstart position!
I now work at @FirstCopyCorp as a Kickstarter!
I can confidently say, it’s the best thing I’ve done! It’s giving me a stepping stone and skills I can use in future job roles!
As well as actually allowing me to put my degree to use!
@FirstCopyCorp still have some Kickstart positions available!

A desperate attempt to find work, having applied for 200+ jobs! If anyone of the writing/ publishing industry see’s this and wants to help a girl out, I’d much appreciate it! Please HMU if anyone knows of any writing positions! #unemployment#jobsearch
'I had the worst asthma attack I’ve had to date. I was panicking, trying and failing to catch my breath. I felt as though I was suffocating. It was the scariest moment of my life.'

Today, five months after first applying for Universal Credit, I am still unemployed and no less uncertain of what my future holds. I do, however, know I’ve learned there is no shame in asking for help in desperate times, writes @holly_liston
