    370 applications?? I'm one of those who have been offered a place and I accepted it. But like OP I don't even know how I managed to get selected.
    OP, did you apply early?

    If you're on facebook- check out LYIT career page, she was posting job vaccanies/internships a LOT but it seems to have quietened down now.

    OP - I did work experience there a few years back and it mostly consisted of compiling/editing spreadsheets and entering data from applications for things like people on housing waiting lists, just your basic computer drone work really, nothing too taxing :)
