lol i did the resume + shopping centre thing when i was 15, got hired by the first place i went into...it sucked though and i quit after about a year.
im wishing i didnt because theres been a big gap between jobs since then. as in, i havent had another job since then. it turns out that its actually not that easy to get a job in my local area because nearly every bloody place is either
a) family owned and run (dont need extra staff)
b) a tiny place that only needs like 3 people
c) an ethnic food place that wants u to speak chinese or something or
d) all of the above
so i was LUCKY with my first job. now i might be getting a job at a new coles, lets hope it goes well... oh and to the original poster get in while ur young! lol they love 15 year old noobs, it means they dont have to pay you a lot
