What is the best way to ask someone for a job?

Question

My friend has a job as a tutor at my old tutoring place. He's 13 and gets paid $6/hr. I want to be a tutor and get the same pay becuase we are the same responsibility. I used to go there, but got in a lot of trouble, but she knows i can handle it. I have experience with kids by volunteering to be an assistant coach for lego robotics. So what is the best way to ask for a job?

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

To get a job, you will need to prepare a resume. This is a short document that outlines your skills and accomplishments. Prepare the resume. You can use the experience with the Lego robotics. Make an appointment with the person who does the hiring. Wear clothes that are suitable to the environment, and smile.

Let her know that you are interested in working as a tutor. If she brings up the trouble, state that you regret what happened, but assure her that it will not happen again. Make a bargain with the instructor: Tell her you will volunteer for a week, and if she likes the way you work, ask her to hire you. If it doesn't work out, ask her if she will be a reference for another job.

Do not mention pay, unless she brings it up. Do not mention that you know your friend gets $6/hr, she will most likely offer you minimum wage. Ask her if there is a possibility for a raise based on performance.

Good luck
