please respond
| Apply. A lot.
| >>670096 Essentially that. You have to spam applications. If they do not respond back essentially count them as someone who is not worth your time. Essentially you have to put yourself out there. For a job.
| >>670096
Yeah basically. I got lucky by just putting my resume out and getting contacted, so I don't know too much about it myself, but this option is deemed to be the best one.
| Just ask everywhere girl, for real
Ps: you can do this!!(*^^*)♡
| As others have said, keep applying for a bunch of stuff. Make sure your resume is tight, and be yourself in interviews.
Don't play the part of "what people want to hear" because they hear that from every other person interviewing that day.
Jobs are hard to get if you're just starting out, and often require you to have past experience which is impossible to get without.. well past experience.
| Don't be afraid to ask friends and family if you can help out at their work so you've got something to show employers as your experience.
Also fun tip is try to work your hobbies into your "special skills", it makes you seem more human and it can look really good if you can twist a thing you do for fun into a display of your skills
| what resume. I finished high school almost two years ago and have been playing video games and watching anime since.
| >>670802 Seems like your biggest problem here is putting yourself down.
Like it or not, an employer is gonna expect a resume, even if it only has your grades and any extracurricular stuff on it. That's why I tried suggesting that you think outside the box and twist your hobbies into selling points.
| >>670802 >>670829
That's how to do it, yeah. An example would be: Playing video games = good with technology.
So then you have your grades + a free, extra selling point. You can do stuff like that with basically every hobby or thing you've done, like, outside of school.
| >>670831 I used to play a lot of Yu-Gi-Oh and I'd tell interviewers that my hobbies gave me skills in making ordered plans, and being able to think on my feet and adapt to unexpected changes.
I have gotten employed mentioning that, so I stand by it.
| >>670851
Yeah, stuff like that! Just be creative with it, because, well, it's technically true. You're not lying, and your chance of getting hired increases.
| If you want help with your resume, just let me know! Either drop a contact in this thread, or mention me, and I'll help you out.
