Welcome to the forum!

I wish you all the best in finding work.

What have you done to find work, other than post on this forum?

There is heaps of info on here about finding work. I drew up a list of all the contact I should make and went out and made them.

Around 10% of the people I spoke to came back to me with either work for themselves or in the form of other people who got my details.

To avoid issues when starting out I would stick to personal recommendations. Most of my work is via this route and I've never had a real problem as a result.
