I had only luck with seasonal jobs with local councils, concerning interviews. Other than that, i did have replies form random companies I posted off my CV, which I found in the yellow pages. Only problem i just get offered non-paid internships. If they cover my traveling costs or offer free accommodation and food, i wouldn't mind.
Sometimes randomly applying to a company does work, since in the UK at least, some companies do not advertise open positions.
Other than that newspapers and field specific publications are the place to look. Personally i'm not to fond about these online job helping sites, were you post your CV and a third party do the job. I rather try to get in contact with the companies I apply to.
The government jobcentre site is also worth checking out.
I actually had a job interview this week, was kind of fun, but then i had a look at the list of interviewees... dude that list was long for a 3 months seasonal job, same with my last two interviews.
