i need a job,and i found out that you can send your applications through the computer,i told my mom about it and she said that its not safe to do that,i thought it might be easier,so basically if i send my application like say petsmart or like chik-fel-a (sp) do you think its safe or not such a good idea ?
Also, I have found that you are more likely to get an interview if you go to the place in person. This shows determination and an actual desire to work. [ agonylucard's advice column | Ask agonylucard A Question ]

Just request an interview and tell them that you will give them all of your important information in person. I know what it is like though, my parents are paranoid about doing anything online. It's not like identity theft can't happen, but they don't need to completely avoid the internet. [ chuckweed007's advice column | Ask chuckweed007 A Question ]

Go for it! [ hopeihelped's advice column | Ask hopeihelped A Question ]
