I only have a decent amount of experience in one field. (Veterinary Assistant.) It seems as if no one will hire me. I have applied for other job but due to my lack of experience in, lets say, customer service I do not get hired. I have applied at every place near my house for the veterinary assisting....
Do you think I have run out my resources?

I signed up for a job at wendys since its a walk away from my house plus I need to save up for school....education is not free...sadly.

Anyway I got a call back and was very thrilled since my job searching days are over.

But the manager there said it takes two interviews and thinks I would be be perfect.

So she said she will call me either tomorrow or in two days so I can talk to manager number two.

She calls and tells me to come in.

So she has me fill out alot of paper work I mean alot....so an hour later am done.

She tells me she messed up and the manager was not here today but will call me in two days and it is possible I have to write all over again.

So after the two days I call her and she said something about the other manager but she will call.

Now its been three days and no calls...did they give up on me?
Is the other manager ever going to call?
Is this even normal?

I just landed a job with a government contractor, my position will an office job on a base. I have really no idea how formal I should be. My job will be the IT manager. I have done work as a onsite tech for many years and have always been the guy who craws through attics and other dirty stuff so I was always in uniform. I know how to handle this job, I just have no idea how to dress? Any ideas!!! I will be doing easy IT stuff, lots of paperwork, but nothing dirty.

The new job will pay $25k/yr more than I am making now and I would be a pretty high level in a very large company in the transportation industry. I am very excited about the big salary boost and chance to work for a good company, but am concerned that if a recession hits and they need to lay off people, I will be the first to go since I am the newest one on, and this is a newly created position just for me.

What do you think? Would you be concerned about taking the job?

I'm a co ordinator & he's my shift manager. He is not running the shift effectively but as the co ordinator it's my responsibility to pick up the pieces. When I try to make decisions, he overrides them (not all the time). When I ask someone to do something & they don't feel like doing it, they go to him with a lame excuse & he overturns my requests, which makes me look a real mug. Basically, he's a nice guy but he's too nice, spineless even. He is more interested in making people like him than making the team work properly. He isn't there to make friends when all's said & done. I have told him I want to speak to him on Monday. What should I say?

I had an interview with a great company earlier this week. They are in a different city about 120 miles away from where I currently live, so if things come to fruition, there are lots of things to consider. I took a day off eariler this week to go, and they now want me to come back early next week, taking another day off. I work in a very small office and this could raise red flags, but I am interested in the position, if the money is right.

I know in normal interview process, it's not appropreiate to ask about salary until they bring it up, but given the sitation, I really want to ask because if they can't match what I'm asking for, I don't want to stress out about leaving work again and don't want to waste anyone's time.

Would this be appropreiate?

I was fired recently. Canned, outsourced, dumped, told to clear out, sent packing, (you get the idea!)

Anyway, I did not leave a happy camper. They told me to clear out and gave me 5 minutes to get my stuff together. After that I was walked out by a security guard and handed my last paycheck.

I got a job offer yesterday but I am not to excited about the boss and the company. But it is in my field and pays about what I was making in my last job.

To get back in the workforce after being termininated, would you accept the first job offered to you?

I have recently graduated from college and looking for a full time or part time position to supplement my income while I am in graduate school and to gain some professional experience in the workplace. I have applied to over 10 different temp and staffing agencies but have not heard anything back from them? Is there anything I am doing wrong? Should I call and schedule an appointment or speak to someone at the temp agency so I can at least get tested or get a preliminary interview or should I just wait to call them?

I want to ask the human resource persons out there or even the people who knows about this query. I recently graduated from college however before I graduated I had an accident and the vision of my left eye was greatly affected. I can say I can do normal stuff like driving, swimming, etc. Will companies accept me with only one eye working?

Everyone thinks I'm a boss, but I'm not really. I have no hiring or firing powers, more's the pity.

I have been applying for jobs with the state of Fl in regards to being a probation officer. Two weeks ago, I signed a conditional offer of employment. When I called to check on the status of my physical and drug screen, I was told there was a hiring freeze. So....I was crushed. Anyways, I decided to try one more avenue....nurse recruiting. I have a little background in that....although it is 75 miles away from me. I went on the interview today and did very very well. The woman who interviewed me kept trying to get her boss to interview me so I wouldn't have to come back for a 2nd interview....long drive. She told me her boss "loved me" and that they definitely wanted me and I would be starting around Dec. 17th and that she just needed to do a background check and verify previous employment. I have gone through this before with the state of Fl and then been disappointed. Should I really think that I have the job? It went so well. Do they usually offer the job on the first interview?

because promotions don't pay that much better and you work twice as many hours and it limits your ability to learn new skills?
They say you should never stay at one company longer than 5 years because you will stagnate, and the only purpose a job serves is that it pays you to learn new skills. So you shouls learn as much as you can (on the job and off), meet a few good mentors along the way, refuse any promotions, and then move on and learn something new at the next job. And no two jobs should be similar too.
Is all of this true?
sounds pretty radical but awesome to me !
