| Everybody
remembers their first job.Maybe you flipped
hamburgers as a student at the local burger
joint. Maybe you delivered pizzas to the
good citizens of your town. Maybe you bagged
and carried out groceries at the local grocery
store.
There are tons of these types of student
jobs out there.In fact, after you have one
of these student jobs, you will most likely
be motivated to work harder and get yourself
to college to educate yourself, so you are
not stuck in a ‘student’ type
job forever. Most major corporations will
not hire a 16 or 17-year old kid who doesn’t
have a high school diploma.And don’t
worry if your job isn’t the most prestigious
or glamorous.
Just think of the real-world experience
you are gaining, and how good this job will
look on your resume when you present it
to potential employers in the future.There
are drawbacks to any job of course, but
always look at the bright side. Compare
the attributes of working in a customer
service position to those of a ‘cubicle’
job. Both have advantages and disadvantages,
so you simply need to pick the one that
works best for you.Some might think a cubicle
type job would bore them to tears, but on
the bright side, you won’t have to
deal with irate customers, etc. which would
definitely be a part of the customer service
position.
In past times, students
just arriving at college and looking for
a job might find work waiting tables, delivering
food for a pizza or oriental restaurant,
or working at the video store. While you
won’t get rich at any of those, they
will pay the bills for you. And with today’s
technology, you have even more opportunity.You
no longer have to get black fingertips after
scouring the newspaper want ads.No need
to waste gas driving on street after street
looking in the windows for “Help Wanted”
signs.These days, all you have to do is
find yourself a computer and start searching.
There are many,many places to look for work
on the Internet.Sites like Monster and Career
Builder are certainly two of the most well
known sites, but there are PLENTY more out
there. And aside from the global sites,
there are sites that are more regionalized
for your area.Most local newspaper sites
also have an online classified ads section,
and some even have a separate section for
job seekers. There are many advantages to
job-hunting using the Internet.Besides the
obvious time saving, the other major upside
is the amount of ‘territory’
you can cover. Click
