Graduate Employment and the death of university RAGs

For me the graduate recruitment handbooks of the Times and Guardian and 'Target' jobs is always depressing as they all require a full honours degree (which if not hojnourary I'm unlikely to getas I failed a OU third year module). A Piece of advice that it personally pains me to write, the days of uiniveristy RAGs (charity collectrion societies) are near obsolete unless you can move back to a city ...where they operate from and get enough housing benefit for bedsits. That means London lving wage (and the same for Bimingham, Caerdydd, and similar sized and incomed cities). The trouble with that is that these are direct debit pledges rather than coin tins so they'd be better off mailing social societies such as Round Table, Rotary, Freemasons and the RC equivilants (KT, Catenians, Knight Columba etc) and is this doesn't sound like some Jaxck Straw NUS delegate like interpretation, send a delgate on expenses to make a presentation or recruit one from that univeristies propulation with a home family address in that town and devolved national legal jurisdiction (as soon all four of Scotland, Northern Ireland and (with the seperation of) Wales and England). The other way to do this is house share on multiple housing benefit claimns and living range in what in London are termed Zones 2-4 suburbs with full contracts of employments.However that means that the third sector of voluntary charity collections regulated by each local auuthorities association of voluntary services and charities moves into competition with those charity collection agnecies that work as commercial employment agencies and seek to win contracts form each charities national area. this is result of 'hard working families' not having time to collect which relegates the former to the disabled and retired (primarilly). There is also the directory of charitable companies at UK Companies House in Cardiff. Just read an Open Universioty letter and you'll see their seperate charitable registrations under these jurisdictions. Oh by the way great new library at Northolt, just regustering at one within a central london commuteUntil crossrail gets built (as my recent hospitalisation prevented me moving / teansferring to Harrow or an inner london boroughnear Birkbeck or City Lit for Post grad study if I don't qu7laify for local aided study at Brunel) and I had to have a look at HS2 route personally as I think that in principle its a good idea.
