I'll start.

I am doing unpaid stuff at a medium sized financial services firm. I am a first year finance student. What can I expect and how should I prepare for it. Any advice is welcome.

Should I put my gender as "other" when applying for jobs? I'm seeing all this diversity bullshit when finding a job on monster and the though came to my head, wouldn't I be more diverse then everyone else if I was a latino that sexually identified as one of those made up genders like attack helicopter or gender queer ottermorph bifluid or some gay shit like that. anyone as experience with what I'm talking about?

I didn't know that you guys had the culture of being unpaid (I'm assuming you're an intern here). I know next to nothing about Australia, sorry bruv.

Idk If I am an intern, I am literally doing unpaid work. I offered to work at a finance place for free. I didn't mention intern when I asked, my communication with them has been casual.

Most people in uni do an unpaid internship, so, we do have that culture. I went to the U.S once, all your servers are great because of tipping culture.

UK here, I've just wrapped up with university and moved back home. My plan is to play bass on cruise ships, but not for a few months. In the meantime I usually work for a joiner all off the books, I give him my time and hands, he gives me some money at the end of the week, nothing too formal.
It's been recommended to me that while I'm not actually 'employed', I should go on the Job Seekers Allowance, but I'm pretty sure that this is benefits fraud.

How much (cash in hand) money can I earn a week/month while being on jobseekers legally?
