Do you have a CV?
Buy your local paper, browse the jobs columns, respond with a copy of your CV and personalised covering letter for each application. Go round local offices you might be interested in working in and hand out your CV.
You could apply for a student graduate scheme, although they're not likely to start until the start of the next academic year. In the mean time you could try temping, it's a good way to test the water and if you find somewhere you like, you could try talking your way into a permanent position...
I've got another year and a half until I'm in your position and I can't wait to get there!
Least you're planning ahead lethologica. :-)
che - think about what you want to do. I'd suggest not office work for you. So you don't want cleaning or supermarket or fastfood. So how about other retail, or other catering work? Can you afford to do a driving job? Most drivers are self-employed (which brings its own tax implications don't forget).
I can see that bumming around at Mummy and Daddy's is nice for you, but you'd be better off trying to get a job - the longer you spend out of circulation, the more damage you do to your CV. Which uni, subject and degree class do you have? What do you actually want to do with your life?
My advice is to grab a temping job through an agency (try Berkley Scott or Blue Arrow) in order to stop depending on your parents, and then think carefully and try to make the right choice the first time round. As lethologica said, temping also might help you to find out what that is. But with the big decisions, don't rush. It seems that you want a job and a career - they might not come together so quickly.
Also - go back to your uni careers service and talk to them.
