I like many others have done factory work. Wasn't what I wanted to do, but it was a job. I find your attitude to work, to be honest rather poor.
You don't seem to have grasped the basic principle that it is easier to find work when you are actually working.
As I hiring manager I would always rate somebody who was actually working above somebody who wasn't.
Most managers want more than anything else is somebody who is reliable. So somebody who is working can demonstrate they can at least turn up. (even more impressive if they admit they don't like their current job.)
Yes. What the OP doesn't seem to appreciate is that most jobs now attract hundreds of applications, and a combination of Brexit and COVID-19 is making the situation worse.
No prospective employer has time to read hundreds of CV's, and most just use a simple discard system . . . and the first to be weeded out will be those that show long periods of unemployment, simply because people who work are a known quantity and people who don't work aren't worth the risk. Even unpaid volunteering 'jobs' are a real benefit.
And then the typical "Job Club" CV, with its standard format and lack of any useful information is the next to go - if people can't be bothered to write a decent CV then they may not be worth an interview.
And then (personally at least) if the CV contains spelling or grammatical errors then it becomes another casualty, because if people can't be bothered to get even the basics right then I wouldn't consider them.
And the next casualties will be those that are very generalised and which haven't taken the actual job into account.
This negative screening usually reduces 300 applications down to well under 30.
And then the positive screening starts. If there's any kind of teamwork involved (and there nearly always is) then I become interested in what the CV says about social activities, sport and so on, which can indicate the ability to work with other people.
And finally, I would take account of relevant experience, education and specific qualifications - which only become relevant once the dross has been filtered out.
So, to repeat what I've said many times in this thread, and most other people have also said, get a job, any job, and prove that you're worth employing because, based on what you've said, I wouldn't give you an interview.
