Go the apprenticeship, fire out a heap of resumes and letters, track when you sent them and ring the businesses individually a week later. It is not the best time though due to a number of reasons. All depends how serious you are in chasing things up.

Best of luck though.

massively not the best time to change jobs, but hey, there is still work out there...

Apprentiship or similar vocational qual is the way to go. You have to compromise too. Alot of people in the same boat as you, why should the employer choose you over the others.... ?

Like everyone has said, not a great time to change...

However if your not passionate about what you do now then there is no point in continuing with it...

Just timing is your only issue, as you said loans etc and we all need money to live...

Learning a trade is always a great way to build a good future, however the money you get paid now is goign to be allot less than your used to...

So you may want to look into it a bit and see if its affordable to make the change for a better future today...

Or wait until your a mature aged tradie (think its 25) and then you get paid more, however you will be less attractve to the trades men hiring you... (Catch 22)

+1 mate get a trade....Plumbing or electrical and then when your finished you will be able to get someone else to work on your car for you :) .....

If I could turn back the clock I would have and done a trade.....

If you don't have any luck with any of the above and don't want to do a trade (I agree is a great idea though!), the place I work at is near South Brisbane and might have something going working the print/mail machines out the back. If you're interested I can see if they're hiring? The guys out there seem to be mostly casual but if you need full-time work I can ask if that's available.

You should go work for an industry (i know there isn't much around the brissy area... but if your willing to move it'd probably be worth it...) work as a process worker for a couple of years and then get an adult apprenticeship through that company, if you are previously employed by a company they can't drop your pay if you take up an apprenticeship ... that's what i did and as a first year refrigeration apprentice i was earning more than you are now (because i was still getting payed the same as a process worker ;) ),

Australia post always has casuals. I know, i'm one of them. pays good, hours are shit, works simple and hard.. Getting in after Christmas is hard though (they have an intake in late October, and keep the best for the rest of the year).

Still, hit up employment agency's like ready workforce etc if your just looking for a job to keep yourself fed. Go in, give them your resume, tell them what type of work your willing to do (and trust me, if your desperate, do not limit yourself. there's a lot of night shift out there that's well paid), and you might get some sporadic work until you can find a proper career.

apart from your spelling, the main problem is this...

have no exact job that i want

you can't expect to get a new job without knowing what you want to do.

you said you looked at a couple of job sites, and if you don't know what you want to do, I guess you went to seek.com.au and looked at every field of occupation?

the other problem is, you are money driven, because you have bills to pay.

this is normal, but you need an "x" amount of money so you don't really care about what job you do, just on what they will pay.

no-one will hire you knowing this.

they will see that you are not applying for the job because you want to work for that company/field..

within 5 minutes in an interview, they will see you don't really care and are just looking for money.

either get rid of some of your debts (car) or find a passion for something, and get a job in that.

or

stay where they are paying you enough money to pay your bills and stop complaining about it when 1000's of people are losing their much loved jobs.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.

      I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.
