hello, everyone! :)
as many of us are aware, the senior class at recolle high school will be graduating soon, and well....
i am part of that class!
i guess because of this fact, i have been thinking that it is maybe time for me to be a bit more independent than i have been, and find a job
this is pretty easy in theory but i find that there is a problem that is maybe not much of a problem to some people but it has been giving me something to think about lol
namely, i do not know what to expect and how difficult getting my first job will be :o
if you have advice, i would definitely like to hear it!!!!
on the other hand, i would like to know what your first job was like, as a blanket sort of thing

ummm, so i guess to make this more concise, i have a few questions!
what was your first job?
what was getting it like?
would you recommend it to someone looking for a first job?

thank you all in advance <3

But you have no experience?
That's the point of a resume.
Ugh, we're talking in circles at this point.

nooooo, its fine!
i dont have experience but my academics should be impressive, as well as what skills i list
not having work experience doesnt mean you dont have experience at all
thats kind of what im learning from the responses here :)

Right well
There are a lot of optimists in this city apparently
Just... know that you're in for a challenge, alright?
What kind of job are you even looking for?

:)
i dont like to keep myself down!
if you try and try, then eventually, i think you will break through!!

to be honest, i am not picky about jobs.....
my dad wants me to work at a fast food joint but i would rather find something less likely to make me smell like burgers XP

[heiroglyphs]

That's
Commendable

At least you seem like you're good with people?
Something in the service industry might fit.

:p

oh
you think so???
im not too picky, but something like a bookstore would probably help me the most
employee discounts....so tempting!!
textbooks dont pay for themselves, you know

Wait til you get to college.
Just because I'm rich doesn't mean I like being taken advantage of.

Wish I could help you, but my family doesn't own any bookstores.
Physical media is a rough market right now.

???
im in college

hmmm
you know you are right about that
there is a little record shop my mom and i go to a lot but its always struggling
it makes me so sad :(
i would like to work there, i know it very well and have been a regular for years, but i dont know if theyd be likely to hire me at the moment

I thought you just said you were about to graduate high school.
I guess that counts?

But if you like something, go apply.
If they like you, they might take you on
Like I said, who you know is super important.

ohhhhh
i am taking college classes as well!
i had to purchase textbooks for some of those classes
i am doing both, it is a little hectic but very rewarding :)

i dont think you are wrong about that....
im just not so sure i can so easily apply, since i know how the shop is doing it :\
i dont want to be a drain on it, its very important to me
