Computer-related work experience?

[asim1999]

I am looking for a work experience placement as it has to be made by February,. As you guys know, i am a computer enthusiast and i am looking for something related to that field. i am in Year 11 ( final GCSE year of high-school and will do work experience in July). 

I would prefer something hardware related if possible.

My skills:

good at explaining computer stuff

Good at building/repairing computers

Good at diagnosing problems

and just overall passionate about computers

And btw, already got an A in both GCSE maths and ICT ( i dunno if that would be useful)

And i live in Walsall btw. Places around Birmingham/Wolverhampton or somewhere not too far from where i live would be appreciated. 

Thanks for the suggestions

Much appreciated

Your best bet is probably just to go into your local computer repair shop, and ask if they'd be willing to have you on. Make a resume, be professional and show that you want to work there. You might not get any money from it but it doesn't hurt to ask and besides it'd be better you're doing something you enjoy and are not getting paid, then be stuck with a lousy job for a few weeks.If you're lucky they may offer you work afterwards.

Any suggestions for a good place?

This is what I got from a quick google search or your area

  

I also got this : http://www.freeindex.co.uk/categories/computers_and_internet/computer_services/computer_repair/

Between the two could you have a look and see if there's is anything in your area / anything you like the look of that might suit you.

Sorry I can't do more at them moment, I'll have a closer look tomorrow and see if anything pops up.  If you know of any places you'd like to look at. I'm happy to have a look for reviews and / or compare alternatives.

Also ask your family / teachers / friends if they know of any tech stores near you that you can have a look at. 

I'll do some more research and get back to you tomorrow.

Best of Luck!
