Ok where do i start ?

im 17 & i live in the uk ( newcastle )

I've currently been looking for a job for some time now, But no one seems to be taking an interest in me, i've applied for jobs loads of times but never had a reply.Its so hard trying to get work, i live off £30 a week, doing a course with connextions but that doesnt seem to help.Ive tryed college aswell but it didnt seem to get me anywhere. Im desperate to get a job. But the thing is i dont have any qualifactions, i dropped out of school when i was 14-15 because of certain problems affecting my school work. I just need some help & support, ive got alot of experiance with certain jobs, such as:

i was a receptionist for a month.
i have a lot of experiance with hairdressing.
i worked in a paper shop for about 3 month.

im really good at answering phones & working on computers.
my attitude is very polite.
i am always respectful towards people.

if anyone has any advice for me please reply to this post
thanks for reading.

I can give you a list of jobs meant for teens for the summer, and maybe you can turn something into more than a summer job? This is not meant to be a lecture and I am sure that you are well aware of it--going back to school, however unpleasant that may seem, will open up more and better opportunities for you in the long term.
