First Job? |
I'm trying to get my first job(i'm 16). But I never know what I'm suppose to put in the Skills & Qualifications box. I mean what skills do I need to present to them to be a cashier/stock boy? What did you guys put in them? I don't really have any skills per say. I get a 4.0 in school, I take calculus, I'm a hardworker, and love talking to people, active(use to play soccer for the school), good with computers. I don't know anything else. How would I word all that to make a standout from the rest of the kids who apply? If someone could give me an actual example of how I would write it that would be great. Like what you would put down, not the thoughts but the actual way you would do it. I helped many people with job applications and find that a lot of people that are starting their first job does not know what to put there. I also took classes on job skills, such as interviews, job applications etc. You have a lot of great skills so it should not be hard for you to get cahier/stock boy job. Here is what I would put: I am very modivated person. I always follow through with projects I start. I am educated in basic computer skills and calculus. I have a 4.0 in school. I work well around others. If they have any other questions they will be asked at the interview. Good luck on getting the job just take the easy optian and join the army thats what im doing yer Clothing store, server at a golf course, a caddy, cashier, host at a restaurant, endless possibilities! put personality traits, like hard working, dependable, responsible, good with people, friendly. You won't be expected to have any experience when you are 16...at least not for a grocery or department store. With your grades, you should have no problem finding a job. Well clearly you're hardworking (the 4.0) you have higher-level math skills (calc) and you're a sociable person. Do you speak any languages? You can include them. Also you should say (even if it's not that important for the job you're applying to) that you can use the internet, word processing programs, etc. (basically that you're proficient with computers). Good luck! |
