Not getting a reply after applying...?

Question

I applied to Dennys about a week ago, maybe a little earlier, but I still havent recieved a phone call scheduling an interview or anything like that. I was wondering what I'm supposed to do, because this is my first job and I dont know how long stuff like this is supposed to take. Also, do I need to take a resume to the interview? If so, can someone post a template for a resume for a regular summer job. No resume templates for full time jobs please

Answer 1

Most places keep you on file for 1 year.
They call you when they feel they have a job suited for you.

Answer 2

If it been more than a week, you can follow up with a friendly phone call, asking about the status of the position, mentioning that you applied recently, etc. They might tell you its filled.
You won't always get a letter or phone call telling you they hired someone else.

Yes, I think it is a very good idea to take your resume with you.
The person who is interviewing may not have it, left it upstairs, etc. There might be two or three people in the room that you weren't expecting. You look much more prepared and organized if you have a few copies with you.

Answer 3

call and check the status of your application. take a resume with you or go to Dennys and ask for the manager and give them your resume or Q-Brief. Since this is your first job you wont have any job-related experience so do what's called a Q-Brief which is a qualifications brief. Employers like to see how you were involved in school. what type of volunteer work have you done,etc. Try that.
Good luck

Answer 4

It could be that they are not actively hiring at this time, I keep applications for 3 months so that if I need someone I will have a pool of prospective employees. I do not call for interviews, unless I am actually needing to hire someone. My suggestion is to put in more applications elsewhere, and calling back to check on them about once a week doesn't hurt either. Just don't call during what would be busy hours.

Answer 5

Mervin's are backside feeders. Set Your factors of interest larger like between the respondents stated Nostrum's. some the place you're able to be dealt with and experienced with recognize. I all so advise you employ your spell checker on your purposes. as a procedures as a results of fact the interest any the place in the process the interview of the recognition of the applying continuously ask whilst the hiring date is.

Answer 6

-Go the the restrant and ask for the manager/supervisor

-Ask if they recieved your application

-Ask when you might here from them about the postion.

- If they give you a date they should be back to you, lets say "early next week", by Wednesday or Thursday call or stop by again. I prefer to stop by in person. They will hopefully recognize a face more than a voice on the phone.

Answer 7

your supposed to keep calling them like every few days because they are too busy to sit around and call applicants. since this is your first job and since it is dennys, you dont need a resume. dont worry, you'll get it

Answer 8

Call once every three days for about two weeks. "Hi my name is _____ I filled out an application. I am very interested in any position avaiable. blah blah blah...

If you get the run arund for two weeks and no call back, start filling out more apps other places. They have moved on.

Answer 9

The best suggestion is to call and ask !!!

Answer 10

You should definitely follow up. It shows your interested.
