The application part where it says "your past employment & experience" ---

besides tutoring and teaching random kidsf from my church how to play the violin
oh, and a temporary job as a pet sitter over break (which ended as my employer and i got into a huge argument)
I HAVE NOTHING!!

Problem is, I don't keep in contact with any of the kids I used to teach... and the pet sitting employer will probably say bad things about me if contacted...

questions are:::
1]]] so SHOULD I JUST NOT WRITE DOWN ANYTHING and pretend i never worked????!!!?? 2]]] ...or do you think it's a good idea write down different # (for the tutoring part - since i was privately employed)?


3]]] or if i put all the info down and check "no" where it says "could we contact that employer?"...............will they really not contact them?

4]]] and for that, will they think weird - like all suspicious and stuff???

help me pleasee!!!

You should put down the names and numbers for the people you tutored. If you check "no" they'll probably assume you're still employed there and don't want your current boss to know you're looking for a new job. It's always best to tell the truth on a job application because if you don't, you could get fired. Good luck with the job search!

I use to hire people all the time. I worked at a bank. This is what I would put under work exp.

*Ask me the day after you hire me and I will have experience*

Dont lie on a resume but if its funny you will get an interview. At least you would with me. Everybody has to have a first job, but if you make the person laugh on the resume you have a better chance.

I'd leave off the pet sitting, but list tutoring and teaching violin lessons, mentioning that they were self-employment. Leave "contact the employer" blank. And no, it won't look weird.

leave out the ones that youd rather check no...as they wont contact them...but they may as you why cant they contact them.....and from that answer figure out if your a whiner or ...law suit risk or .......etc

but go ahead and put sitter/ tutor etc.. some experiennce dealing with kids is better than none---esp if job entails that
