Default Finding Jobs - 30-04-2005

Hi I'm trying to look for a job. Right now i'm in high school though graduating. I've been looking throught the newspaper looking at the general help wanted sections (most of those don't require exp) though all of them are FT. I'm looking for PT. Right now I just signed up with Monster and posted my resume. Has anyone had any luck with monster? Really what I want is a job that'll pay me lots, w/o experience. Could someone suggest me some other options, like instead of newspaper, what businesses could I walk into looking for a job (ie. bank, ebay-selling place, etc), that is NOT any food related or grocery related.

Thanks, and here's my resume. Any suggestions PLEASE!

heh, high payed without any prior experience you say...

good luck ; )

but to be serious, the easiest way to get a job (at least here in denmark) when you don't have any qualifications on paper, is to get it through somebody.

Ask relatives/parents/friends if they happen to know about something at their workplace. That's at least my experiences with it.

You are very determined to get to work with computers... this might be difficult, especially as long as you are in highschool, because you're not the only one out there with a comprehensive knowlegde about computers. Chances are that somebody else actually got a paper or something.

Maybe you should lower your standarts a little?

but anyway, good luck.

I do believe porn actors are higher valued if they have prior experience, except in some niche productions, I guess.

btw has Nova anything to do with porn or was that just a coincidence?

What a job interview that would be huh? "So how many have you slept with?", "Oh 22, 23 if you count that drunk lady i picked up from the bus stop", "Your Hired! "

Anyways, If you took college courses for your degree or something some of them can be counted as experience in the field you are searching for. I know my Network+ class counts as 6 months experience.
