    I am sure it is more difficult now to get a job than it was when I was younger. I would never give up nor would I think “they” threw away my resume. If they did or did not would not change my approach. I would also try every way I could think of to earn money, not just jobs. I would offer to help neighbors with construction work or try helping seniors to get to shopping or anything you can invent. You will get a job and it probably will find you by surprise. Never give up.

    Hi. I am 18, and I have been looking for a job for a while now, and I just can’t seem to get one. I have previous job experiance, but even that doesn’t seem to land me anywhere. I have used many of the techniques you talked about before even watching this video, but nothing is working. I leave many resumes, I talk to the managers with a smile, I try and follow up, but their answer is always the same, “If I need you I’ll call you,” which is bull. They will have thrown out my resume by then.

  9. Just keep trying. …
    Just keep trying. Do not worry about the ones who do not call back. If you are at the right place when they first realize they need someone you will get the job. Do leave many applications and resumes when possible. A resume is not just job history but your special abilities and volunteer work and phone number and references and anything of interest to an employer. You do not need a previous job to have a resume. Good luck. Keep trying. Apply everywhere. Thanks.

    I’m 18 and have never had a job. What should I do? I filled out many applications and followed up, but I’ve never even recieved a phone call from a fast food resturant. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks.

    Thank you. It is very normal to get nervous. That just means you are anxious to do well. I always was nervous at job interviews but after the interview is progressing the nerves settle down.

    I would recommend getting a job when you can fit it into your schedule. Working part time will build a resume. It gives you some employment references and experience for future better jobs. There are some jobs so bad you will not want them, but hard work is actually fun to look back on. Don’t get a job if it is something terrible. I would not want to work in an animal stockyard, but fast food or office work is fine. Enjoy getting and doing the job. Now is the time. 15 is good for part time work.

    You would be wise to bring any identification and your Social Security card. If you have had any special schooling you might bring the certificate of completing that course. Otherwise show up dressed ready to go to work. Listen to what the interviewer asks and says. Good luck. Sears is an organization that has been around since I was a kid. It used to be Sears Roebuck. In Canada it was Simpsons Sears.
