I applied for similar positions at various organizations. One of them offered me a job which I accepted. I have been with them for just over a week and now one of the other companies wants to interview me. Is it rude or or in poor taste to ask for leave to go on this interview, and if accepted at the other organization is it unprofessional to resign while still in training?

many warnings over 4yrs..some were unfair & 4 same things others did but they got no warnings.Example: I said "son of a *****" @4am in laundry room when basket fell on my foot (4am peeps r asleep) but boss found out from co-worker & I got a warning & suspended (due to 4yrs of warnings) but 2 wks later the boss infront of me & co-worker said "f-word" twice during report...after 2nd time @11pm I mentioned it & she said "everyone's asleep".Another was cuz I didn't put laundry away yet others don't &they get no warnings. Why only me? I was suspended in May...came back& got my 3% raise & had no trouble for 4mths... off 6days then got fired over annonymous letter.. no investigation. Funny thing is... within 2wks of being fired (1)my name was scratched off b-day list & again for 2nd time after list replaced (2) cousin's job app. disappeared then the letter arrived. Anyone could've wrote it to start trouble & it worked/got fired. If I was that bad why keep me 4yrs? Think I can collect or not?

I'm at my first real job, and now am applying to be a supervisor in the same department, and on my application I need three professional references. Since this is my first job, the only professional references I have would be some of the same people that would be hiring me for the new job. Should I just put down their names? Can I put more than one of their names, since I have several supervisors in the same department? Or should I put "personal" references, as in people that know me but I have not actually worked for? Someone please help! Thanks~ :)

You know those pre employment screening tests, that no matter how you answer the question it always seems to be the wrong answer. How do you pass those things?

I'm a senior majoring in human resources and I would like to get an HR related internship. However I really need to get going on getting one and I got an interview for a management trainee internship at Wal-greens. I don't want to continue in retail, but is this still good experience in management and HR? I'm so scared if I accept this internship I'll regret it (if I'm offered the position). Any thoughts, opinions?

They come to work everyday and do most of their work well, but they're constantly involved in something that interferes with their ability to concentrate. I want to 'straighten' them out somehow so I don't have to get rid of them. Any suggestions?

I am invited to a job interview in accounting field. I know that I should dress very conservatively, and I already have a nice black suit ready. But I am not sure what kind of bag I should take. A small purse and a separate folder with documents? Or a rather big bag where I could fit the folder?
Thanks!

I just graduated from college last may with a bachelor's of science in psychology. As you may know in order to have a job in psychology you must have a least a masters and a PhD to be a psychologist. So for the past 4 months I have been looking for a job. At first I applied for adminitative assistant jobs and I didn't get any because most of them want you to have experience. I then thought my degree qualified me to be a mental heatlth worker. I applied to those jobs and got 1 interview but didn't get the job. They 2 also want you to have experience. Then I just gave up and just started to apply for jobs at stores like Old Navy, Best Buy and other mall stores. Some of these places gave me interviews but I still never got hired. Is it because I have a college degree and they feel I'm overqualified? Because I can't find a job I decided 2 go back 2 school to get a cerificate 2 be a drug counselor but that take a year and a half and I need a job now!!!!

I have never had a job before. I was wondering what I should expect and how I should prepare for a job interveiw. Some of what I'd like to know is what kind of things employers look for when determining who to hire (other than the typical clothing choice and the way they person presents themself). Also, and I guess my most important question is, what kind of questions do they ask? I realize that they vary greatly from job to job. But could you give me an idea or maybe even examples of what questions they might ask? I'm not very good in interveiw situations, and I just want an idea of what to expect when I go in for one, so I don't end up tripping over my words and making myself look like a fool.

Thanks for the help.

Okay, we all know that nobody really likes work. But, it does suck when the funding starts to run out. So, my question, how long have you gone without a job? How many interviews did you go to before finally landing a position? Give me some details and be honest. Thanks.
