Never Had A Job

ok so im 19 and I’ve never had a job.when I was in high school I danced everyday and had no time at all to do anything but that and if I did get a job they would have fired me the next day. and no its not because im “rich” and have parents that spoil me. im not in college and I really need a job and I’ve been applying at tons of places…but no one will hire me…I thinking because I have no experience. but seriously…how am I supposed to get any if I never get a job? I want to know what to put on my resume and aplication to get a job.

Answer #1

Try applying for part-time jobs at smaller places like diners and the like. They usually dont require any work experience and will give you some experience to start with so that you can move on to better jobs in the future

Answer #3

at that age, most people most places wont or will hesitat to hire you because you have no expirience …so get it, you need to go were most people get there first jobs … places that are easy to get a job at fast food stores like mcdonalds, kfc, burger king, wendys, dohnut king, ect will be glad to take you on if your willing to show up when they want you there and stick to it you ont need any expirience, because they teach you how to use everything like the machines, the till/cash register, ect
