Help, never had a job, need one soon?

I'm 17 and I've never had a job. I've never asked anyone about the application process so...



1. Say, if I wanted to work part time (obviously) as a grocery bagger or someone who makes sandwiches at Subway. Do I need a resume?



2. Do all these entry level jobs do interviews? I heard some of them take ~ 5 mins. What kind of questions do they ask?

basically you need to dress for the job. i would say slacks and a decent button up shirt. tuck in those tails! they don't need/want resumes and you will ask for an application which you should fill out on the spot with your own pen. if you can, give it to the manager. answer the questions as close to the "center-line" as possible: basically make it sound like what your boss would want to hear as well as be truthful. you may get an interview. these usually mean you got the job. just look at them and answer their questions. LOOK THEM IN THE EYE! shake with BOTH hands and grip hard when they are finished. that's how you win an employer.Help, never had a job, need one soon?

You don't need a resume.



Sometimes there are interviews, but if you've never had a job there are really no questions to ask about prior experience. It usually just consists of going in and filling out papers and maybe watching a video or something about safety and then taking a test about the video.Help, never had a job, need one soon?
You don't need a resume for those type of entry level jobs. Just fill out the application and have a social security card with you and proof that you can get there.



They ask stuff like can youdo the job? What is the hardest thing you have had to overcome? Why do you want to work here? Do you know anybody else who works here? What are your future plans in life?
1. I don't think you need a resume and all that crap for a grocery bagger.

2. I don't think they do interviews but you of corse need to sign up on a sheet of paper and the owner or manager will do some tests to see how you do at the job.Help, never had a job, need one soon?
Pretty much anything you would ask a prospective employee.

Are you dependable? Would you be willing to come in on a day off if needed? Do you have any problems talking to people? Do you have any problems making change in a timely fashion?

You don't need a resume.

Take this suggestion and make some REAL money with it. If you can type at all or know any Word or Excel, go to temp agencies. Find a list of them near your house and hit them all up and complete all the tests as quickly as possible(as in days). Not only will you find part time stuff, it will usually pay around 2 to 3 times more than anything else out there...like fast food.



PEACE!!
You don't really need a resume, but it's always nice to have one. Look up simple resumes on google and just put good qualities about yourself. (school courses, gpa, etc...)



Not all jobs interview. If they need a spot they will hire you on the spot. But most will interview you. Make sure your posture is good and wear nice clothes. NO JEANS. Also, dont be a robot, put some personallity into your answers.



Questions they might ask are,

1. Have you worked before? When and Where? Why did u stop?

2. What is your definition of great customer service?

3. Why is great customer service important?

4. What are your hobbies?

5. Career Goals?

6. Why do you need this job? or why do you think you are best for this job?

7. Whats a memorable experience you've had?

8. How would you make a customers experience here memorable?
