This is a draft for a cover letter/objective statements/something. I'm trying something new and interesting as my job search so far has been disappointing:

This isn’t a difficult intro to draft. Why would working at a universal, socially conscious and ecologically responsible haven for creativity be a hard sell for an artistic university graduate with a desire to create a solid career and income base while furthering a lifetime of professional achievement and business chops. Along with my outgoing personality, the experience of growing up with a family business unfolding from the ground up has encouraged me to seek understanding of cultural diversity and people of all ages. Extensive experience in the service industry, and now working at my family’s financial firm, has given me confidence in working and serving a broad range of people. I know I will be a valuable resource for Starbucks Coffee Company serving as a Real Estate Assistant (job code) or a Store Manager (job code).

My father knows a person who gave me his contact info at a big financial company. Question is do I sent him a generic cover letter saying thank you and telling him that he gave my father his name etc... Or do I send a cover letter but without specifying a position. I just list my skills and abilities and hope he finds a match. thank you

we started talking about overtime. I said that I would enjoy my job more if I was not required to work as much overtime (being that I am not getting paid as I am exempt). Their opinion was that as a “Professional” I am expected to work overtime. How do you feel about this? Do you agree with my coworkers? Can you label anyone as a “Professional” and expect them to work overtime regardless of their salary?

Hi, I'd appreciate any feedback...I'm thinking of moving out to this area and I'm wondering what the job prospects are for a college graduate, not in business or scientific fields, looking for an entry-level position. Which areas of these states are prosperous and which should be avoided? Thanks!

I have an interview with a small animal hospital in my home town here in Lexington, Kentucky. I am sure I will be asked about what I am expected to be paid, but I honestly have no clue. I am currently making $9.25 as an office manager for a small construction contracting office. After reading descriptions of the job and considering it may include working as a receptionist/clerical help, I would figure definately more than minimum wage. For just a receptionist in my area I see offers of $9-$10 and even more. Any advice on where I should start?

Don't bother if you're just going to tell me what website I should look at....been there, done that.

I had a very excellent recruitment agency tell me that I've been temping for too long! (I'm a medical secretary). I now want to move on from this onto something more permanent now. I've loved temping, but it sounds like my temping is a 'turn off' to future employers. How do I word 13 years on a CV?

I gave my notice of resignation at my current employment. I put a specified end date, but being so disgruntled about my work, I do not want to come in anymore and just quit now. I was already offered a job that I really want, and specified my new start date with the new company (of course I accepted the job). So I already have the new job set in place. Can I quit my current employment (even though I specified a date to end)? It is an "at will" employment. So I can quit anytime for any reason. I need help please. I'm so dissatisfied with my current job that its severely worrying me, causing distress, and affecting my day to day habits (maybe its because I'm getting projects that was handed down to me by people who quit too and havent kept track of their project references and files!)

help please!

i just got a job at an ice cream parlor and ive been working 6 hours but im worried that they will want me to work 8 hour shifts which seems to be the regular. do you think i should be able to work 6 hours without being pressured to do more? im only 16 and so far 6 hours is pretty tough once the 5th hour is done.

How do you tell your boss that you are finally resigning after 5yrs with the company? Need suggestions, letter, speaking to the boss?
I don't want to burn my bridges.
My boss and our family are close, but he has no clue that I went for another job interview and I just got the phone call today to start the new job! WOOHOO
My boss will either say "go home" or "how could you do this to me", or "you trader" I really don't know how to handle this.
I was his backbone at work.
How do I go about telling him?

I had 2 jobs @ the same time with the same company, & I quit both of them because nothing is ever done correctly. One of them was working @ the summer camp. I no longer work for pay, but I'm volunteering for the camp until the kids go back to school. Do you think I should quit volunteering, too? I'm only doing this because I love the kids so much, & I don't want them to feel let down. My former boss wants to re-employ me for both jobs, talking about how badly he needs me. He's tried to bribe me with sign-on bunuses, raises, higher promotions, & whatever he CAN to try to get me to come back. Obviously his bribes aren't working. So, he tries to sneak in extra work that's non-camp related that's from the other job & try to make it my responisbility. Now, I think he's going overboard to try to get 500 people to sign a petition to get me to go back to those jobs. & he wants me to be responsible for everyone's unfinished or poorly done jobs. Do you think this petition will work? I don't!
