JOB INTERVIEW.


Posted Sunday January 13 2008, 6:15 am

Okay, so I scored a job interview!! I'm so excited.

This will be my second job interview, my first one was for my old job, you can tell I got the job.

I don't have a resume as I've only ever had one job and don't have any school achievements :(

What should I take, and what should I say? Should I remember my first job interview and remember what I did last time to score the job? (Answering HONESTLY, not lying or even exaggerating to get the job and trying to appear calm)

Places to work in Australia?


Posted Friday January 11 2008, 12:47 am

Hiya, I'd really prefer people who live in Australia to answer, however if you have anything to help me you're welcome to answer.

I used to work at KFC, and the pay was really bad. The conditions were terrible and I kept getting rostered onto really bad days so I left.

So luckily, finding another job won't be as hard as other people who have never worked before (Although I only worked there for 3 months)

I was wondering, where else can I apply? I'd prefer if you could apply online but anywhere will do. Also, chain stores would be easier. If it's any help, I live in Melbourne Australia.

Please don't say "work in a fast food or a supermarket" because I can't apply for Coles...

Can't find a job...


Posted Friday January 11 2008, 12:03 am

Alright, I'm female and turning fourteen, and I'd like to get a job.

Of course, I'll try to get in at Publix, but, Publix is extremely hard job to get.


The bowling alleys won't hire me. I don't live near any amusment parks...

And, yes, I do baby sit, and other 'jobs' but, I'm looking for a real job.


Also, I've heard a few people say: You can work at a fast food place.

But, every time I go to the website (Not just a website in my state, the website for ALL the reasturants) it says 'no one under the age of 16'

I live in Florida, so keep that in mind, and thank you very much. :)

CONTRACTS IN AUSTRALIA.


Posted Saturday January 5 2008, 3:31 am

Is it illegal for someone under 18 to sign a contract without a parent or guardian present (Under Australian laws that is)

Also, if anyone has worked in fast food before have you ever had to sign heaps of stuff? Because I had to sign about 5 contracts (Filled with legal mumbo jumbo I didn't really understand, and neither did anyone else who started when I did) whereas people have told me they didn't have to sign ANYTHING.

(Once again in Australian law thingies)

Thanks :)

Waitressing Tips


Posted Saturday December 29 2007, 11:07 pm

If I want to get a job as a waitress at a restaurant, who do I ask about if they are hiring?

Also, do people usually take the job spots on weekends or weekdays? Days or nights?

I'm still a student in high school so I have limitations like I can't work during the day and may have clubs after school, so maybe nighttime would be best during weekdays or not at all. On the weekends, Sunday mornings and Saturday nights may work. Does that sound reasonable?

This would be my first job. I have no prior experience. Hopefully I won't screw up the interview? What questions would they ask?

What restaurant would you recommend getting a job at?

How do waitresses get paid? There's a...

Heinen's


Posted Saturday December 29 2007, 8:11 pm

I'm 15/f.
I turn 16 this February.

I applied for a job at Heinen's with my friend. We applied for the one closer to our homes because of transportation reasons. My dad also works at Heinen's, but the one he works at is far away. He used to work at the one I applied for, so he went and talked to the manager. He said you had to be 16 to work there, but he'd give me a call over break to schedule the interview anyway. My friend won't be 16 until May, so I'm not getting the job with her anymore. Now, I'm second guessing working at the one I applied for. The customers there are rude, plus I'd have better co-workers at the other one. I want to work at another one that's still pretty close. I applied for store #2 on Christmas....

I really need a job in Southern NH!


Posted Tuesday December 18 2007, 8:11 pm

Alright so im 15/f, living in Southern NH, near Salem and Hudson. I really need a job! There's just too many things that I would like to buy, but don't have money for. My parents have 5 kids so it's hard for them to keep giving out money. If anyone could help me find a job perhaps in Hudson? Or near Pelham/Windham that would be greatly appreciated!
Or even job engines or whatever that work well.

Thanks soo much!! Sorry its a bit long!
