I have play clothes, levis, and shorts and t-shirts, but I don't really have any "middle" clothes. When I dress, I wear designer clothes that are very expensive. I have never thought about buying "dockers" or some thing like that. Should I do it? I can't get a job, and my thinking is , I go into an interview, and my clothes cost more than the H.R. guys annual salary. So, should I go to Jaques Penney and get some "middle class" wardrobes? And should I trade in my Jaguar for a , I don't know, a Ford Taurus or something? I really need a job. And I don't think these folks think I need a job when they see me pull up in a jag and hop out in an Armani suit. But, yeah, I need a job, because in the pockets of this Armani suit, there is barely enough cash to afford the McDonald's dollar menu. Seriously, how should I dress? And how do I make the interviewer not self-concious?

...that I do not live too far away for the job I applied for? I live in a small town and everyone pretty much drives close to an hour for a job. The job I applied for is only 38 minutes away but he thinks this is too far for me to drive. Is there anyway to get him to understand I will have to drive that if not more for any job I choose?

I heard the hours are both long and about the same, but the pay scale is vastly more for I-banking. Should I be jumping ship to I-banking instead of public accounting?

So I applied for a local police officer position... well I passed the initial oral interview, the medical screening, the agilty test and during the agility test we got fitted for uniforms. Well the last step was an interview with the Police Chief.. well it was about 10 minutes long, the Chief spoke about the benefits, rookie school, what he expects from us, and also 4-5 people out of about 14 won't make it. He said he would call me by Saturday and let me know if I get a job offer.. After the interview we were sent back across the street where we were "fitted" for uniforms again, and also guys were calling us new recruits..

However, if we don't officially have the job yet, why were we being fitted for uniforms? And making it all the way to the Chief's interview? Do I have a shot at this or no?

i've worked in the food industry for about 8 year. from supermarkets to bakeries to upscale casual dining. my training is in baking and pastry, but i'm a wiz on every station on the line, and i'm great with banquet prep. i'm also pretty good at soups and sauces.

my problem is i want to move to the next level and become a sous chef, but i have no formal training with ordering, food cost, scheduling, and overseeing a kitchen. i have the upmost confidense that i could learn to do these things in a short period of time.

how do i explain my lack of experience in these areas, and get hired for the postion.

My immediate manager has been harassing me for contacting the President of our company with a very valid complaint against my manager. The complaint was that my manager has chastised me for 1) sending my resume' to HR and the company President for a promotion, instead of him and 2) When I found another job, I sent my letter of Resgnation to HR, and the President of the company as well. I have 2 weeks left at this job. My mamnager has harassed by cutting my over time hours I was scheduled for, and verbally. I stated that sending that documentation to HR is a common practice in corporate America, and he states otherwise. Everything should go through him. The reason I have collected that he wants things this way, is becasue he is a shady character and does not want HR or the Present to know what goes on in our division. Additionally, Id liek to point out, our weekend shifts are 8 hours, no lunch, no break. Which organization can help with a complaint against the company?

I got a call around 4pm yesterday with the job offer, we discussed salary, start date etc and they want me to start in exactly two weeks. They said they would type up an official letter and email it over to me. I have not recieved the official letter yet, but needed to give my 2 weeks yesterday, so I did. I guess he really has had only 2 working hours since we spoke (it is 9:30am here) to type this up. Should I be worried that I have not recieved the letter confirming the salary and start date yet? Should I have waited until I got this to give my notice?

My employment history is four estate agents (redundancy each time) an investment company (which folded) and a telecommunications company which i left after a year due to my job not going anywhere. All this in 4 years.

I'm desperately looking for a new position. Currently working at NHS Direct but i literally can't work with my boss any longer. She used to be a PA in London and she's still a PA but not in London. She needs to realise things are very different in the suburbs!!

Should I continue with this job for a while longer or look for a different job in the same organisation?
