I went for a job interview yesterday for a company my mum works for. It was for a job that I am well qualified to do & have had plenty of previous experience. The interview was conducted really badly, they told me all about the company & the job itself, they then asked me if I had any questions that I wished to ask. They asked me to fill out a simple test, which was basically to show if I could cash up a till. They left me to fill this out & said they would return in 15 minutes. 5 minutes later they came back & said 'When you've finished that just bring it to reception'. They didn't ask me one single question! Nothing at all about myself, previous experience or anything that I had written on my application form! They've just been in touch to say I haven't got the job and to be honest, I'm not surprised. I feel like they only interviewed me because my mum worked there. I'm not annoyed that I didn't get the job, I'm annoyed that they obviously wasted my time. Should I complain?

I am going to apply for nursing school this fall at a local community college. I know that I am going to have to take refreshing courses this summer because I have been out of school since 1998. I am very nerous about the whole experience since I always hated school. I know that I will have to pass the NET before being accepted to the school. I was wondering if anyone can give me information about things that I can start studing for now. Things that will help me with the NET and also classes. I also was wondering if you think it would be better (easier) to take the required CNA1 class and then get my LPN and work for awhile or go straight for the associates degree to become a RN? I know in my area there is a big difference in pay ($10-$15hr.) but I am worry about the class work load. I need to also be able to work a part time job. Any advise would be helpful! (P.S. I have already talked to someone at the college and they really did guide me very well about what to do.)
Thanks

FMLA states an emploee must notify the company of their need for FMLA within 2 "working" days of their absence. I have an employee that missed a Friday. He was then laid-off for 1 week. Is he required to notify the company within two days of his return to work, or the 2nd business day (while he was laid-off)........?

This will vary depending of where you live, but my definition of a "living wage" is an income that can pay for the basics. Not having to decide to eat or pay rent. That means a modest but clean and functioning apartment or house, making dinner rather than eating out a lot. Also being able to afford a decent, but not expensive vehicle that get's a person to and from work without being in the repair shop all the time. Being able to at least buy a new outfit for an interview at Wal-Mart, not nessicarily Macy's (unless they have a good sale) I would say in Indiana, a living wage for a one to two person household is 10-12 an hour. Mandated minimum wage is 5.15 and most employers pay around 7 just to get people to take the job. What about your area?

My question is to someone that is a paralegal or someone that is closely knows a paralegal. Is this a great career choice, meaning pay wise and happiness wise.

P.S. I do love law!

I've been asked this twice recently and didn't get either job. Any tips? Both times I've said stuff about supporting other team members and recognising that every person brings different skills to the team. What else is there to say?

If someone says they will call you back in a couple of weeks (for a job), how long should you wait to hear from them?

I have been out of college for 5 years. I have a biology degree and have worked in various labs. I know I don't want to work in a lab anymore and I have been thinking of getting out of science altogether. Does anyone have any ideas of fun jobs that pay resonably well that I wouldn't need to go back to school for?

Its making me real uncomfortable. I'm not going to quit because of them, i've been there going on a year and they haven't been there only 2-3 months, if that.

I have a boyfriend, but he's in texas right now because he's in the army, and i'm not going to dump him for anybody. I need help to get these idiots to leave me alone.

I'm ignoring them but we're a small grocery store/pharmacy, so when we work at the same times i see them all the time.

Help!!

Well I'm a teenager trying to get a job, because I have nothing to do right now. My previous employer was just a grocery store. I was there for about a year. I'm worried that she's talking crap about me when possible employers call her for a referecne. So I've got this idea to call her as another grocery store asking about myself. Sound good? I'm using a cell phone.. verizon. Can I block my number?

My fiance is trapped in the crazy and unfair politics of his company. They refuse to let him grow! It pisses me off! I need help looking for good jobs for him ANYWHERE in the world, with most preference in Asia and Hong Kong. He has 7 years experience in BPO's on quality and process training.
It really isn't fair, and not just because he's my fiance, but because he's really very talented and puts his heart into everything he does.
Help?
