I am attending a 'selection event' at a university next week, and on the agenda I have my interview followed by an in-tray exercise. Does anybody know what this means and might consist of?

Thanks

I need to create a resume, but I've only had one job?! At my age most people have a lot more than one job to brag about. So I feel like it is pointless to even make a resume, but I need to. Any advice?

I have recieved a call letter for interview from Jis shipping lines in ghana and have offered me a job of a medical officer on their passenger ships.
i searched on google but dint find any info about that company, i doubt if it is a scandal from someone; cos if it is a shiping company it shud have their own website atleast but they are having a website with 3 pages on a free domain server, and all 3 pages are mentioning abt recruitement only.

So I recently have been working at retail (a teen clothing store) in the mall, and it's so far been pretty tough. I work on the floor (greeting, folding, dressing rooms). There is a strict image/environment standard that goes onto the floor and I didn't realize how perfect each fold, stack, etc. had to be. My manager is intimidating and I am always nervous when she comes to see my work, and if something is slightly off, she will tell me. I think it's cause I'm new and she's giving me a trainers attitude, but now I see why so many kids at my school who've been hired before have quit this job early. Should I stay, or leave like the rest of 'em?

There are many books that says;

How to become a boss, expert, millionaire etc,...............in 5 minutes, 10 days, 21 weeks etc...

Do you believe THAT KIND OF WORDS are effective to SELL MORE for the books OR it just decrease the trust TO THE BOOK?

He is a fellow teacher. I'm friendly with my coworkers and like to keep the environment harmonious. Yet the other day he said he had a dream about me and in it he kissed me.

He's only been working at my school for 4 months, so I don't know him well. I've been avoiding him. But I'm wondering what others have to say about this situation...

thanks!

I am in training at a new job ( A premier Insurance company ) as a service rep, in training I was asked to tape a simulated call with a partner, I knew the call would be graded, However I thought it was a feedback task not a test, in the middle of the call I could not toggle through the screens so I asked my partner if I could stop erase this part & start over; I did not record the rest of the call & the start over statement was on the tape, I turned the tape in. I was called into my trainers & managers cue I was severly reprimanded, I really had no idea the severity of what I had done, after all everyone in my training class rerecorded; I thought it was acceptable, but evidentally this was a test . I was told I did not represent the companies values & this incident would be recorded in my file. This is only my third week, I have already been spoken to for a tardy ( there was a traffic accident on the highway a 20 min drive took 1 h & another time for coming in early.
I need this job
