Fruit picking is an easy job to get but usually far from the big cities.
In the big cities get your name down at as many temporary work placement agencies and phone them constantly until they get you a job. They will be so sick and tired of you phoning, that they will find you a job to stop you from phoning. Worked for me.

If you are looking at working anywhere where alcohol is served you will need a Responsible Service of Alcohol certificate. If you are working in a pub or club that has poker machines you will need a gaming certificate as well. There are various organisations offering the course which usually takes one day. Type Responsible Service of Alcohol Certificate into your favourite search engine to find out more.
