I have recently graduated and looking for jobs in financial services. I have had little luck so far but am persevering. I have a bar job at the moment but only do about 10 hours per week. I am considering applying for job seekers allowance. Is this likely to affect me getting a job in any way?
They will ask you how much you are earning, and will probably say no. I think that this 15hours rule only works if you are unemployed and then whilst signing on, get a part-time position, where this is allowed. You'll have to check with your Job centre as they all can be slightly different.
