They Should Hire Me I Think

[LadyKay]

Okay, so I found out about a job and went there and got an application. The application was simple just 1 page asking for contact info, if I have ever been in jail and 3 spaces to list the places I have worked before. There was no space to allow me to tell them how great I would be for the job. So I added my resume. And in my resume I highlighted all the reason they should consider me for the job. I told them I had over 15 year of experience, I told them all the things I had learn to do and have done in all those years of working. I made it sound like I was someone who really enjoyed the work that I do. Which I do. So they should at less call me wouldn't you think? I know no way of knowing. But I gave this one all that I got so I can only hope I stand out somehow from all the other people applying for work.

Not to sound like a downer, but I hope you don't come across as "over-qualified" and yet, on a good note, you probably gave them everything they would have needed a follow-up interview for.

Not knowing what the job application was for, my concern is the "1 page" job application. Those type of applications were the kind we used to give out to recruit part-time workers or students working their way through school.

I truly hope it is a legitimate form of work because if it is and you stated having that many years of experience in what they are looking for, that would automatically place you in a position for a supervisory role. So, yeah, I really think they should hire you.

Part time full time I need something no matter what as I have nothing now. Part time can turn into full time.

Maybe you were right about the over qualified part. I am starting to understand why so many people in this little town are being busted for selling drugs. I am wondering who's butt I have to kiss to get hired around here? I am growing weary of rejections. But today I apply for a temp. customer service job with the hope that if they even bother to call me that it will go from temp to regular. (sigh)
