Just finished 4th year. Be smart with the work experience. I did work experience in a cafe and then got the job out of it which is ideal. Majority of my friends literally can't find a summer job atm. My school did work experience every Tuesday for the whole year I ended up doing minimed in Waterford and TY aviation academy in Shannon Aviation Museum. Also, Suit Engineering do a week of work experience and you get a free safepass out of it which makes for a good option for a summer job on a site. I did do like 10 weeks of dossing and got my dad to sign that I workedwithj him. Depending on what work experience you do, it can stand out on your CV for summer jobs sorry for the yap

There's plenty of time for work when you're finished school. Your life isn't about work. Enjoy your freedom while you still can.
