Re: First Job
apply everywhere. lie only to the extent that you will be able to cover your lies(boss: hey do you know how to use microsoft excel? you: yes sir i indeed can(give fake example of you applying your nonexistent excel skills somewhere that wont be able to be verified) then you get your ass home and study the shit out of excel)
craigslist monster yahoo jobs apply at stores within travel distance firm handshake and always say thank you after internviews and when applications are given. show that you are very grateful for the opportunity even if you know the job is kinda bad(burger flipper). |
Re: First Job
Have good self confidence, look good turning in application and during the interview, prove you're intelligent and know what you're doing, and dont be timid.
Getting a job isn't as hard as a lot of people say. |
Re: First Job

Re: First Job
Don't bullshit too much in your resume, dress like you're being sued, eye contact & confidence when it comes time for interviews.

Re: First Job
If you put too much bs in your resume it will be a bit troublesome cuz interviewers ask stuff from your resume expecting you know very well about it

Re: First Job
On related note I managed to get my first computer science related job this summer because of my resume on our schools career service website. I was pretty stressed about the interview at first, but once I met the employer in person he seemed more laid back than I would have thought. At any rate he pretty much asked me about everything on my resume and my interest in the field and other pretty common questions.
So I would advise you to only put things on your resume that you can actually say something about. Also don't over practice answers for questions that you would anticipate. It's probably just my personal opinion, but I feel like it would be better to answer questions with a more genuine feel instead of as if it was regurgitated word for word. |
Re: First Job
Don't live in Michigan, which you don't. So it should be easier already!
