Hi, welcome to DS.

It's shocking the way the unemployed & sick people are being treated nowadays. The Government are only out for themselves & their rich friends!

Greetings. I understand your predicament and find conflicting advice from one advisor to another is detrimental, I don't think this is government led, from what I have read the advisors are told to find the best route into work for seekers. It would be nigh on impossible to tutor them into how they do it, that rests with their management.

It is easy to blame the government but they are not on the frontline and I think it might be beneficial to look online and find real information which could help you gather better advice and hopefully lead you into the kind of work you would like to do. In this day and age surely your experience would be more appreciated by a company that needs more mature staff.

I wish you good hunting and hopefully hear very soon that you are settled into work you enjoy.
