How to get a job
It made me
grow as a person
 "Confidence is key"
How I did it: After months of applying for every sniff of a job vacancy that came my way I was so depressed and had lost my confidence. When out of the blue i was offered a small waitressing job from a company i`d applied to months before but had kept my information on file because they genuinely liked me for me. Lessons & tips: Never give up, take every oppertunity to shine. Resources: local newspapers, friends, word of mouth.

How I did it: Filling out applications EVERYWHERE & calling back places b/c that shows your dedicated. I even applied at fast food places i didn't want to work at, but thank god blockbuster hired me :D Read how I did it…
How I did it: Someone told me about a summer youth program in the city and I checked it out and got a job. All I needed to do was bring my ss #, light bill, and ID. I had to stand in a line for about 3-4 hours but if you're committed to having a job it was worth it. After all of those hours standing in the line and all of the stress I finally have a job. Now I'm working in an office at the University I attend and we don't even have to work on the weeke… Read how I did it…
How I did it: Instead of isolating myself at home I took a free internship. Not really what I wanted to do, but it got me out there doing something. Got in contact with a friend who needed help on a job and one thing lead to another. Had a very lucrative 16 week project & more opportunities from there. Mind you, this project was not in my new field, but my old, but it got me out, making money and motivated for more. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I applied for a CIT (counselor in training) job at a summer daycamp. It's not a bad summer job... I'm only going to be making $500 for six weeks but that's more than I'd be makng if I didn't have a job. So, I've got my first job! Read how I did it…

I’m looking for work at the moment. I’ve been on loads of interviews and I’ve not had luck yet, but I’m hoping the law of averages is on my side, because I’ve literally applied for hundreds of jobs, and I’ve had little feedback. Somethings gotta give!
TheNewChristie is doing better...
So far I’ve worked in two areas, both of which are public service. Right now there are cutbacks all through education, leaving only the other area, in which I’m really not interested. Maybe I should just apply and hope that things work out… Better to have a job. But what about my dream of making films? Will I still be able to do it?
Maybe I should go back in school and “hide” ‘til the recession is over… Ugh. I just get a lump in my throat thinking about this.
McDonald’s. Round Table. Going back to Food 4 Less on Sunday. Del Taco. Carl’s Junior. :)
Peeglet is looking for a job
I thought I had an interview at 4pm yesterday, but I was never given directions to get there. I called the lady who scheduled it in the first place about 5 times in 6 days, and never got an answer. I’m pissed. If she didn’t want to interview me, she could’ve just said so.
Kay Livingston is procrastinating.
Trolled Craigslist in Boulder and Denver areas and applied for 11 jobs so far today. Also going to hunt down the nearest unemployment office to where I currently live and ask them what is going on with that…
I have now applied for more places. Like Walmart and Raley’s. :) I have also worked on getting my ID, which I need to finish working on tomorrow.
Well, just got back from college. Went to the career center and had them look at my resume and help me edit it, managed to get it all onto one page. It’s not bad, but I feel the lack of experience kind of hurts me. It’s also really depressing that I have a 2.932 GPA, they said only to list GPA if it were 3.0 or above D: Oh well, at least the resume will help me look more professional when I apply to jobs instead of just filling out dumb applications :) Going to apply to any job I can find that I qualify for, I’m determine to get out there and find a job so I can start saving as much as possible.

invisiblekiss asks,
“I need help being motivated to get a job. It is more of a "should" than something I really want. I am comfortable how things are. My parents have decided they will charge me 50 dollars rent each week if I don't apply for 5 jobs a week,i OWE 50$ RENT!”
