Hi I am also unemployed at the moment, and also have a list long driving licence.
you can drive class 1 / 2 Lgv/Hgv, also waggon and drag.
You can get your digi card by getting an applicetion form from the post office or your local dvla ( the latter is easyer as you can talk to someone) your first card is free and lasts for 5 years.
hope you have better luck in your area for a job than me in my area.
Be very carefull with agencys as you only get paid for working when they have work.

Maximum Gross Weight

MGW also known as maximum authorised mass (MAM), used in the context of driving licences, is the maximum weight of a vehicle or trailer including the maximum load that can be carried safely while used on the road. This is also known as gross vehicle weight (GVW) or permissible maximum weight.
