On job applications, they ALWAYS ask for the reason of leaving your previous position(s). The reason varies extensively, but how do you answer this kind of question on the job applications, when you don't have good reason. As you know you can't just say you didn't like it.

I have noticed there's people who apply every where from grocery stores to clothing stores,restaurants,fast food and even extremely easy or crappy jobs and it still takes up to 6 months to find another job.they even reapply constantly.They interview confidently but they're always getting past by in majority of the cases by more experienced people.

I rejected two job offers because the salary was just at the minimum and I didn't like the position. But now, I am having trouble looking for a job with better pay and that would suit my skills.

Not that being a woman matters, but do you think the cops would hire me? I live in a small town with only one female cop.

I have just recieved my Paralegal certificate from an ABA approved school, I have my Bachelor's degree in Business. I have owned and worked in my own business for the past 25 years. Now I am looking for a total career change and REALLY need a job. If anyone has any true job leads please let me know. I want to stay in central Orange County California. I know I need training and I'm willing to start at a lower pay scale but I do need benefits. I'm very motivated to learn and would like to think I'm a quick study. I've posted my resume on craigslist and monster with no results. In fact I've had very little results to most of the ads that I have responded to. This is not a fake solicitation for help. Thanks for taking the time to read this and if you can help thanks for that!

Guess others have asked this in one form or another. Guess just wondering at what point really am I not employable. Out of work for nearly 4 yrs, before that a serious of 4-10 months job stints, 3 times dropped out of college, bad credit, defaulted loan, criminal record for bad check. Guess it could go on, but only have 1000 characters to type.

Tried contacts with family, friends, want ads, temp agencies, placement services, govt services. Add this to long mental health history, no focus, direction, goals in life (took tests to find something, no luck so far). I know faith is next part .. Considered spiritual, but not of any religion (only part about me i'm okay with) though that further isolates me, not to much no car or desire to ever drive. Think that's it. Can't tell if i'm looking for options, trying to get approval on how worthless i feel, or both. Guess just thinking i've tried all ideas and i'm out of them.

I have recently interviewed with a temp agency and I wasn't totally comfortably with how fast I was moved through their system. Anyone know if this is typical. Are they always in such a hurry to have you sign papers, take tests and in general "sign up"?

We know that having a Social Security number is voluntary, and yet nearly everywhere you go for work, they ask for a Social Security number. What is all that about? If you don't have one, they look at you as if you had three heads. You can't even join the military unless you have a number. Not sure if the same is true for getting drafted in time of war.

I got a shot at a very good job. Human resources called me, the man said he would like to offer me a position with the company. However I will be getting a formal job proposal via e-mail and at that time I should give my current job a two week notice. So I guess before I get the proposal they will check out my record and also check to make sure I have my license just in case I should ever need to use a company car. I do have my drivers license but three years ago I was found under the influence and with drugs(more than once) since then I have been good and I am no longer leading that sort of life style. But if asked what shall I say?

I tend to answer the phone a lot at work (the secretery no longer thinks this is her job) and I get screamed at by the clients of another worker in my office. If the person on the other end is nice, I will find the answer for them. If they scream at me, I put them straight to voicemail. Why is it that people seem to think that screaming gets me to work harder for them?
