i found that you can make a good life without going to college and not having to be famous, so why when the economy is dying anyway and society cant provide jobs for everybody as it is do we constantly force ppl to send there kids to school instead of just giving them a farm to work on at the age of 13. not only that most famous ppl make more money than the ppl who actually aid the modern society, i could see the reason if there were jobs and if the army didnt need ppl but you can always go to the army and the ngo from there. To me this is gonna be an ongoing problem for a long time because we cant organize the country whe nits not our top priority

I had an interview on May 17th for a job I really want. The interview went well! It was supposed to be 1 hour, but ended up being 1.5 hours and a 30 minute tour of the facilities. I informed them that I would be going out of town the next week, but that I would still check my messages and sent them a thank you card for the interview.

I did not hear anything at all while I was gone. When I came back on June 1st, I called and was informed that I would need to wait an additional two weeks as the HR department was giving them problems and they had to interview internally.

Thursday will mark two weeks since that call. When should I call them? Also, why is there the difficulty with the HR department? Is that normal? What else can I do, besides apply for other jobs?

I didnt remember what my salary was for a job i had a LONG TIME ago, so i guessed. Well; i found my old pay check stub from three years ago and i put 2 dollars more then what it really was. Now i want to find out if the prospective employer can find out how much i made at these old companies? To know if it's even worth staying in the running for this job. Im pretty sure these people to extensive checks. I dont want to look like i liar, i'd rather just forget i ever applied.

I'm 19 going on 20, I've only had two paying jobs; one which was a summer work program for youth, and the other working at a grocery store where I quit because of abuse. I fill out applications just about everywhere I see help wanted. I'm well groomed, polite, and punctual to interviews but I never get a second interview. In interviews I know I mess up with certain questions ("How would others describe you"?, "Give an instance where you've given exemplary customer service.", etc.), I just don't know how to answer these questions because I haven't had an experience that pertains to that or I can't speak for my friends. I also have trouble with references, I keep to myself, don't make many friends, and because I've only had two jobs (one where I can't expect a good reference) I don't have any co-workers or supervisors to vouch for me.

I really want to get a job in California and I want to know would I get hired faster there than I would in Chicago say if I apply for jobs in California in the fall? I realize that in Illinois/Chicago, the taxes are extremely high, and I wanted to know are taxes in California cheaper and lesser than Chicago/Illinois or are they equal. I understand that in Indiana, taxes are cheaper there and Vegas you don't have to pay any taxes. I really want to work in California and would like to know would I get hired and get a job faster than in Chicago? I am looking at working in Los Angeles because they have beautiful weather all year long as well as Chicago, where it gets extremely cold. Would I get the job faster than in Chicago since it is where I'm from and I really don't like Chicago at all and would like to move someplace warm where I don't have to wear a winter coat all the time. I would love to work in Los Angeles CA, and want to know, would I be able to find a job there?
