Best means of finding unlicenced contract work?

Hi,
I have nearly a year and halfs experience on A320s and some 737s in electrics, avionics and some mechanics. I know its very little experience so im not gonna get my hopes up, but Im just wondering where do I start really, I know there's aviationjobsearch but that doesn't seem to be showing up much, is there a list of agencies floating about anywhere where I could give them my CV?
Ill have a decent reference, and a fairly varied packed diary for the time Ive done. As I said though I know its little experience, Im just looking to work enough to at least get myself an A license.
Any help will be great, cheers
Adrian

Cool

There's a reason there's not much on aviationjobby, as there is not much work about at the moment.

To get a cat A, you also need experience AKA work. Catch 22.
