What are you wanting to achieve with employment? Need money? Something to do? Creative outlet? Exposure to / interaction with people?

Do you have any clarity on an ultimate career you would like to head towards? If yes is there any thing you need to do first or a baby step you can take towards this? Like a first job you can take to get you on the ladder? What do you need to do, or experience do you need to have, to get that first step job? Or do you just want to be employed in anything? If yes do you have previous job experience in anything? what does your CV look like? What would be the easiest path to take? There are some very good book in most library's that can show you how to write a CV that is not work experience based but sells your skills instead. I have used such a CV twice to get my foot in a brand new careers where I had Zero work experience but I showed how my skill set match the new position. |

Temping sounds like a good starting point to me, too. That way you can try on a variety of work environments to see if anything is particularly enticing.
