Do I have to put all my past jobs / previous work experience on my resume?


Posted Sunday January 9 2011, 8:57 pm

I'm filling out job applications and turning in resumes and I realized that I don't really want to put down one place I worked at. I worked there for a few months but I didn't like the job and it's a place around here that everybody thinks is pretty low (bad employees, bad management, bad everything). I don't want a possible employer to read it and say, "Oh, it's one of those people..." Is it acceptable for me to not include that part of my previous work experience? I feel like it would hold me back from some job opportunities in this area if I put it on my resume. I wouldn't be like lying but I'd just be excluding a part of my past, right? What do you think? I don't want to break some unspoken rule about resume techniques, of course.

I'm interested in a job but I think I'm under-qualified. Should I apply?


Posted Sunday December 26 2010, 8:47 am

Should I send in an application to a job that I'm REALLY interested in but think I'm underqualified for? I found this particular job that I think sounds AWESOME. I told my mom about it and she said I should apply anyway because most jobs will train you how to do something before having you work for them. I don't want to look like an idiot applying for a job that I have no qualifications for or experience in though. What do you think?

Having a hard time finding a job.


Posted Wednesday November 24 2010, 5:41 pm

I have a resume and every place I apply at I give their application along with this resume.
I'm 18 years old, I have applied atleast 30 places and each of those places, numerous times. I keep a list of places and when I applied. I've had around 4 interviews.
I've never had a job before but right before my 17th birthday I started applying to jobs. which would be March 2008.
I don't know what I'm doing wrong? Most of my friends got jobs and some even have gotten 2 or 3 since I've been applying. I can't even get ONE job!!

Are there centers someone can give me to help find a job?


Posted Wednesday November 24 2010, 3:59 pm

I'm 17 and I have been looking for a job. The job that wants to hire me is too far away, I have never had a job. I went to a youth workforce center and they said I have to be a senior in highschool to join and Im a junior. All of the places I went to are not hiring. Ive did a lot of job applications on the internet and I havent heard back from any except for one, but that job was too far away. Is there any centers that help teens under 18?

Hiring Freeze!


Posted Sunday November 21 2010, 3:01 pm

I'm 16, the age where most jobs can hire you. It seems like every job i try and apply to is under a "Hiring Freeze." I will be getting my license soon, and my own car and I will need to pay for gas and insurance. I have yet to go around my town and scope out where I could work. Anyone else have any suggestions? I'm so frusterated and stumped on what to do. Also, my mom doesn't want me working in a Union, so that limits grocery stores.

How do you work at a cash register?
How do you work at a cash register?
I know how to count money and press buttons, but I never worked at a register. How do I know what to press when someone says they want a number 3 off of a menu or something. How do I know the prices to put in the register when people say they want something?

Scriptwriter...? I think...


Posted Wednesday November 17 2010, 7:03 pm

I've decided that I would like to write stories, design characters, and basically write movies, but I didn't know what the career was called, so I just guessed maybe scriptwriter... If you know the correct name, I'd be happy if you told me! Also, are there any really good colleges for this type of career?
