how should i ask for a job? (1 Viewer)

[xxPanDa]

im planning to just go around the shopping centre and ask for a job...

i was trying to think of a sentence to somehow ask


"do you have any vacanies?"
than i thought, not direct enough..

"are you guys hiring/employing?"

just print out a couple copies of your resume and go around to places that you want jobs and make some small talk.
eg:
"hi, are you guys looking for new help"
"no, fuck off you dipshit"
"oh, can i just leave my resume with you guys anyway"

They may have not put it in the most eloquent manner but the above to are very right.

Agreed.

yeh thats sort of what i was thinking of doing

but ive been trying to think of a better word than "new help"

id think the not so intelligent would go "huh?"

Just be calm and ask casually. No need to get stressed and be all formal, it's not an interview or anything. Also, do what Rageeb suggested. Print a few copies of your resume (make sure it's not too long) and just go dropping it off to different stores. You should get calls back from different places, depending on how many you handed out and if they're interested.

yeh i went around the shopping centre too and lucky for me like 12 shops called me for a job. i chose City Beach.
anywyz heres the trick. firstly its best to go online and put ur resume in that way. That way u dont need to talk 2 them. If ur going to go around the shops say this with a smile: hey hows it going, i was wandering are there are jobs available here. Remember have like 5 resume's in ur bag when u go 2 the shops just in case.

Thats exactly wat i said+ i went online = i got all the jobs offers i eva wanted.

hope u get ur dream job!

Whatever you do, don't get you dad to come with you and ask to speak to the manager for you.
