Job Clubs and jobseeking help

There are Job clubs and Job-seeking help available in most of Oxfordshire's towns. You can find out where they are by contacting your local Job Centre+ or Early Intervention Hub.

Job Clubs can provide lots of support with job-seeking:

• Advice on improving your CVs and applications
• Trained advisers who can advise on how best to apply for jobs
• Access to lots of information about local opportunities

You can also find some information on these topics on this website, use the links above. You can also sign up for our weekly hot jobs and opportunities newsletter.

Why Job clubs can help

Job clubs provide more than just information and guidance. They also help you structure your job-seeking, let you spend time with other people who are also seeking work and share tips and experiences.

These are some of the Job Clubs running locally. Those described at NEET drop ins are for young people aged 16-19 who are not in employment education or training.
