hey, i'll be applying for a job at 'The Source' since they're hiring a lot of people can anyone recommend any good websites for tips and information on making cover letters and resumes? any information can help... i hope i get this job!!!
lol i'd never apply for an online job The Source is an electronics store.. its pretty much Radio Shack, they just changed the name i just need some good cover letter/resume writing tips
I think MS word has some templates for reume's....Ill see If i can find you the downloads for more....Ive used them pleanty of times. I believe Monster.com also has a resume' builder.
If you don't know a answer, don't lie about it. Just put "N/A". Never leave a question unanswered, it might look like you didn't read the entire thing. Be open and honest, no point in lying and getting nailed later on about it. You say this is online? That might mean your most likely sending a email or filling out a job application online, so beware of proper grammer & spelling. Know the companys product and the rules they enforce, it might save you later down the road, and in the interview. and yes, Microsoft Word is a great tool for resumes. Its what i use to keep mine updated. Microsoft Excel is great to keep track of money, and spreadsheets as well. Good luck, BFTP
Be professional is your writing and spelling and never lie. Lies will only get you into trouble later down the line . Just be yourself because that is what matters when it comes to work.
well me i didnt do to good in english but like i see everyone all ready pointed out that MS word is good for resumes.
Then its even better to know their company policy and products. Dress fashionably, but nice. Lean forward and politely listen, stay alert, and ask questions.
Most importantly, dont be shy. Be open. Dont be too abrupt. Dress appropriatly, even if its not your style. Be serious, but not too serious. Smile, but dont smile too much. If you dont know how to answer a question, play it cool. 90% of jobs ask minors one main question. That question is: "If you had One word to Describe yourself, What would it be?" Answer that question honestly, dont lie, dont pretend you dont get it, dont think too slow, dont think too fast. Hopefuly you understood my logic. Good luck m8.
When you go for an interview make sure you know what there company is about, also print off a list of references. I can type up an example and show you if you want but it wouldnt be till tuesday.
Lets just say i nailed a job across the country via only email. Interviews are what i do damn near everyday.
