I'm just wondering because I only know of 5-10 vacancies they've told me they sent my cv to in the last year.Helennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6941116624675227992.post-77905002020875627832012-11-07T15:20:30.078-08:002012-11-07T15:20:30.078-08:00For the period June-Oct 2011 370,000 people were r...For the period June-Oct 2011 370,000 people were referred to the work programme.
