I think the problem is that they've been forced to move from
actively helping people to look for work, to trying to trip as many claimants up as possible and get them off the books. that said, the bint that took my claim a few weeks ago gave me the wrong person's jobseeker agreement - major breach of data protection there.

I worked with half the staff in my local office 20 years ago when I was doing the same job.
I had to be proactive in getting my clients into work or training, so my down time was spent trawling the system and local papers to match clients to opportunities. That doesn't seem to happen now.
