Want to know when you can start and how much an hour you are looking to make.
Put down the date you can start and how much an hour the job seems to be paying.

Matters the field and position you are applying for. When you are availible could mean 2 things. The date on which you can start working for them, or it could mean the days and times of the week you can work. The wage expected is the pay rate you would want. Ex. $20.00 per hour, or $30,000 annually. This all matters wheather this is for a simple job or a professional job.

If you're looking for a job right away, I would put ASAP for when you are available and the question about wage, I always put minimum so it doesn't look like I"m being greedy. But that depends on what kind of job it is. If it's a higher up job, minimum might look a little silly.

When would you be available to work? ASAP(as soon as possible) or is there an actual date of when you can start? and wage, ask for a number around the base for that position or if you have skills, then ask for something around what you know you're worth, but be reasonable of how much a job like that would pay around your area.

On the line that says when available you need to put what day you can start there and then on the line for wage expected you need to put how much you would like to get paid per hour. I hope that helps and good luck to you :)

I think most people leave the wage slot blank, but if you know what they would start you off with, I guess there's no harm in putting it. As far as available, just write down what days and times you are available to work.

when available means when can you start working like tomorrow, etc
wage rate expected is what you expect to earn an hour or yearly. if you applied at McDonald's etc. you probably need to put minimum wage

When available. When ARE you available. Now, 1 week? Be honest.
Wage rate expected, put down "negotiable."
This means you are willing to discuss it.
. Often, that's the last thing to be discussed if they areinterested in you.
Good luck.

Depends on the job, and when you're available.
