Catering Jobs in King of Prussia, PA? |
I am a high school student in King of Prussia and I'm really interested in a catering job. Does anyone know a place near here that is hiring part-time servers? Thanks a lot! With all the restaurants and hotels in that area - and on 鈥淭he Main Line鈥? you shouldn鈥檛 have any trouble or problem finding a job close to home or school. Look in the Yellow Pages or Yellowbook under 鈥淐atering鈥?AND/OR 鈥淩estaurants鈥?AND 鈥淗otels鈥? Quite a few years ago, I worked in that area. That area is 鈥渂ustin鈥?at the seams鈥? Here鈥檚 what I believe you should do: 1] At an office supply or a stationery store, buy THE FINEST, BEST-QUALITY stationery and matching envelopes - letter size & note size. PLEASE DON鈥橳 buy something for the price! IT MUST BE THE BEST OR GREAT QUALITY. Color: white or off-white. Not sure? I use 鈥淐rane鈥?stationery. As far as I鈥檓 concerned this is THE BEST.. 2A] Go to the library. Find-out EXACTLY who to send your correspondence to 2B] & THE EXACT NAME & TITLE of that person or those people. 2C] You NEED THE EXACT ADDRESS. If it鈥檚 a street number with a Post Office Box, get it. 2D] Find out EXACTLY how to address the envelopes and inside addresses. 2E] Have those names, titles & address? & the different ways to address correspondence & envelopes? 3] You NEED a professional-looking r茅sum茅 AND accompanying cover letter. If you can find an easy-to-follow, on-line form, use it. If not, go to the library. Ask a librarian. He/She should be of immense help. How? Because folks go to the library ALL the time, looking for that exact information. I noticed the grammar and spelling in your question. NOTICE: You get one opportunity to make a great first impression. Your grammar and spelling MUST be perfect. When you prepare your r茅sum茅 & cover letter, use spell-check & grammar check. 4A] When you think you have them perfect, ask someone to review them. How about the librarian or your high school English teacher? PLEASE swallow your pride and accept their constructive criticism. 4B] THEN make the corrections [and revisions]. 4C] Ask that person to review them again - just in case something was missed the first time. 4D] Make the corrections and revisions. 4E] Ask for another glance of your finished product by that person. 4E] Did that wonderful person do a great job helping you? Using your best handwriting, hand-write him/her a 鈥淭hank You鈥?note on that best-quality note sized paper. It goes a very long way - just in case you might need more help in the future. 5] Prepare & send the r茅sum茅s & cover letters to the people on your list. PLEASE make sure each and every cover letter is signed. Make sure the same letter and r茅sum茅 are in the same envelope, addressed to the same person. 6] Use postage stamps. NOT a postal meter. Thank you for asking your question. I enjoyed taking the time to answer it. You did a great job - not only for your information, but for every other person interested in reading my answer. Thanks to everyone for reading my answer. I wish you well! VTY, Ron Berue Yes, tyhat is my real last name. Source(s): My wonderful family.
