Thanks a lot for your response it was very helpful. I live in Mt. Albert so I sent my CV to 13 schools around here, but not down in Manukau. I'll do that today. I also plan on submitting my CV in person later next week to the schools that have not replied to my email.
With luck I will have some steady work in a few weeks. As for the abundance of social studies graduates, this seems to be the case everywhere. When I choose my major in college a professor laughed at me and asked if I liked being unemployed, I didn't realize he was asking a legitimate question. Though I've always managed to get a job at the schools no one else will work at, it's a bit of a niche in the market.
