Don't know if it's considered work as such but definitely something out there- researching factors which could put children at increased risk of developing head and neck cancers later in life at the National Centre for Immunization Research and Surveillance at Westmead Children's Hospital.

Background: Time trends in cancers of the head and neck show that the cohorts born during both world wars are at increased risk. Ecological analyses suggest higher rates of STI (especially HPV infection) in the mothers may be relevant.

Aim/Method: An exploration of other confounding factors, behavioural and biological, such as smoking over time may help elucidate a better understanding of this association. The student will use routine data sets as well as search for trend data on potential confounders in the literature to gain a better understanding of the fluctuations in these diseases. Access to epidemiological and statistical support/training is available.

Outcome: inform decisions whether vaccination of newborns against HPV may be worthwhile researching.

I work at Diva. It's not good pay but I like my job. From time to time.

And for the people who want to work in retails, really, it's not that fun.

you just apply to them.. it's a CA program. so after i finish my degree i immediately do my CA instead of working for another 2 years.

it puts you just a little bit ahead of everyone else i guess xD the consumer markets and entertainment auditing is just one level above where i am. and we always get to work with them since every company has IT controls that somehow affect their numbers.

you should do internships. there's 6 of them here right now from all different uni's and if the company likes you, they will offer you a position.

since i finish school, im trying to get a job. i dunno much. i think i have some stupid questions : Can u apply online and then interview? If i work in woolworths, does this mean those online jobs are the only ones available? which is better to work woolworths, target, big w?

This is way too late but whatever you do DON'T WORK AT WOOLWORTHS!!!! IT SUCKS!!!!

Being a check-out chick is the worst T___T unless you're on the express registers... otherwise it's constantly like... "THAT BAG'S TOO HEAVY!!" "THIS BAG NEEDS MORE STUFF IN IT!!" "DON'T PUT THOSE TWO THINGS IN THE SAME BAG!!" "DO YOU HAVE EFTPOS?? NO?? WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU DON'T HAVE EFTPOS???? I WANT TO SPEAK TO A MANAGER!!!!!" "WOULD YOU MIND BEING A LITTLE FASTER??" "YOU DON'T HAVE TO LOOK SO SOUR YOU KNOW!!"

...etc... etc. >____>

But I bet fast food's even worse : D
