@@j3soka293 It's going great! I got a raise a couple months back, and my life is well on track. I love the job, co workers are great, overall its just an amazing experience.
You'll need alot of luck from my experience. In my 20's I had absolutely horrible luck finding jobs, no one would hire me no matter what I tried. I didn't go to college or anything like that because I had learning issues in school, particularly with math, and almost failed high school. The only jobs I got was by knowing someone who helped me get on, and then gaining experience within that industry. I've only worked for 2 companies in my industry. I've worked at my current company for 11 years now. But I really need a change in my life, and need to change jobs due to really insanely long commutes, and a whole host of other reasons. (very, very long story) But now at age 38 I've had nothing but problems getting jobs over the last 1.5 years...just basic manual labor oriented jobs, because that's in line with my normal type of work experience. I need just a basic job close to home so that I can then focus on taking steps to learn something new, or find an apprenticeship/training program...or something like that. With my current job I have no time for anything like that. I'm always burned out, and have to get up super early and I get back home really late.

I dont know if I ask for a manager, they'd assume that i'd be a Karen. About to complain. How to sound like not someone who complains when I ask for the manager upfront? Also, if they say, the manager or the supervisor isn't available, should I hand in the resume instead to whoever employee I talked to?
I wish it was as easy as stated. I have bad anxiety and get caught up with a lot of my words. Overall I always just seem so awkward and very unprofessional. I feel like I’ll never get a job :(
I'm so scared omgggg I have bad social anxiety.. my friends know at school that I'll just buss out crying and walk away if I feel it's too much for me , especially in the cafeteria, I can't stand looking in people faces or surrounded by a lot of people talking,it just drives me nuts . I'm gonna broke all my life
- R 😭😭😭 yo I am too! It's sucks that we have to do this! I really want a job and I'm going today to ask for a job application! They are urgently hiring so I hope to god I get it because they called me ughh but I don't feel like it
🤭 Update>>> gonna do it tomorrow because I'm even more nervous if they ask for an on the spot interview so I'm gonna practice more so that I don't choke up 😭 man good luck to you because I totally get where your coming from ! I hate human interactions. It's just so hard
Virtual Karma Well👀 I have a very toxic household and I have so much anxiety, I ended up not going but got other opportunities but they were far from me so I gave up because Im too nervous for that type of stuff (interviews) . So I let it go , but I realized theres a program I was once in at age 16 called "Work Source" they help you with resume building , interview skills , jobs, etc. So im going tomorrow 😉
@@Zahlit20 I got a job interview at sky zone but didn't go to it lol I don't know what it's gonna take . Being 17 , I should have a job so I can have a car like my other friends but ...
Wait so to apply for a job u just randomly come in,ask for the manager and then ask the maneger wt places are available and simply say why ur suitible for the role and then get the heck out of their....WOW
You know maybe I'm not trying hard enough and I have to do this again today but everytime I go into apply with a company or workplace and ask or inquire about a job they then proceed to tell me to go online. I've been unemployed since June and don't know what to do at this point honestly. I feel like walking in seems like a big waste of time but at the same time when you apply online at home you also don't hear anything back. It's like a lose-lose situation to where you almost have to beg and keep calling back the company for a job. If it wasn't for my mom harping at me to get a job every 30 seconds and getting dirty looks for not helping out around the house and all of this BS then I wouldn't care about getting one to begin with honestly. I told her I didn't want my next job to make me feel enslaved like my last job of almost 6 years that I hated so much and she keeps aggravating me and telling me to take whatever I can get. She knows I have anxiety and she's just not making it easy on me because that's all I ever hear her complain about. The worst thing about job hunting is you have outsiders looking down on you and treating you like dirt all because they think it's so easy when it's not easy to find one.
There’s a Subway really close to where I live that has a job ad on the door that says that I can apply in person. Even with the confirmation that applying in person is acceptable I’m still so worried about it
my bad not replying for so long what happened was I asked they said the manager had just left then I asked when they would be back and they told me between so and so hours and then the employee said they had just had a bunch of interviews and hired like 3 people so they were probably not gonna hire anyone else. But I didn’t go back and got a job somewhere else
I don’t feel like doin online because it will take too long I feel like in person is faster just go and find manger and say I want to work here and boom
@@cloroxbleach6039 No you're right... I do this online thing for weeks... It's always when you walk in and meet in person... But people keep saying that it needs to be online these days
Dj Cessika Thank you for asking me💕 here’s how it went ( The job was King Soopers btw): I showed up 15- 20 mins early and I checked in at customer service as I was instructed and they had me wait for like 10 mins and said my interviewer would be there shortly then 20- 30 mins went by and one of the mangers told me that my interviewer was in a meeting and she had me write my name and number down so they could reschedule.. but let me remind you it was a interview that they set up.. so I was kinda hurt bc I worked so hard and I was so nerves and happy that finally someone gave me a chance and that’s all I really wanted 😒and 2- 3 days go by so I decided to call them back and one of the managers told me to come in that same day ( I couldn’t bc I was not in the area and I don’t even have a car or a job to pay for my transportation) I told her I could come the very next day and she said Monday’s are bad for her and then she said well I’ll just give u a call and let u know when and I was like okay have a nice day and she said okay bye, It’s been like 3 weeks and I haven’t heard anything.. I keep trying but nobody will give me the opportunity to show them how much of a good worker I am, I’m fina be 16 this month so hopefully age might be what was holding me back 😢I just hope I can find a job and help my mom and Little sister bc they all mean the world to me and I just want them to have all the things I never had growing up bc of money problems💓Thank you for listening
@@bvugcgjbb2920 Hello :D, well first of all u're so sweet about saying all of that XDD.. but anyway..why don't u try to work at McDonald's? im currently 15 as well i will reach 16 in 2 days lol, and im from Egypt and here we should be 16 to work so ill go and apply for a job at McDonald's at my Birthday xD..well im tellin McDonald's cuz all people says it's extremely easy to get a job there..and the best way to look so serious about the job for them is to apply and ask for the application there, well but i won't do that.. for me im going in and ask the Cashier for a manger, then ill say with wide smile, Good Morning sir i was wondering if there is a part time job here?, well the purpose of the reply just suggesting u to try McDonald's it's easier XDD and everybody can work there even if u have criminal record lol no joke Well Good luck btw xD
I' m an international students struggling with job hunting, I 've tried to apply online and walk in for a month. But I still don't hear back from companies, it really broke my heart
I applied at a hotel as a receptionist, i got an interview at the spot and everything was going smoothly i surprisingly didnt feel so nervous, they asked me to comeback the next day to look inside the hotel with the manager, i got so happy i thought i got accepted but the fuckers wanted me to work as a dish washer and clean the rooms :)) and i have a master degree i hated how they underestimated me!! i got so mad when they told me that at that moment i didnt care who was infront of me i got the fuck out of that hotel.
I’m 16 and applying for a job as a customer service assistant at heb tomorrow. I’m normally really good with eye contact and public speaking but when it comes to something im fighting for I start to stutter and it gets rlly obvious that I’m nervous. 😬
lol compilation no i didn’t go with her, she dropped me off and i went in alone and asked to speak to the manager, he asked for my resumé and I got the interview right then and there . i got the job but i quit a couple weeks later bc of covid, it’s a grocery store so it’s the most contaminated place you can be. I’d suggest not to get a job now bc you could get sick but if you do, don’t take your mom or dad bc you’ll look like you need someone’s help getting a job IMO , your parents won’t be there when your working so they shouldn’t be there when applying. Sorry if that sounds mean, its just solid advice 🙂 also make sure you have a resume on hand and make sure your stuff is relevant to the job. I have job experience since I was 13 and a 4.0 GPA so it was pretty easy for me to convince them
@@haleyvargas658 thankyou that's really good advice and its calming my nerves down because tomorrow I'm gonna go get a application at sonic. But I dont have a resume. Hopefully they dont ask for one.

Step 1: AYE YO WHERE DA CHIEF OF THIS JOINT AT?! Step 2: SUP DUDE IM THE NEW BOSS AROUND HERE NOW Step 3: Leave and come back for work the next day. (as the "NEW CHIEF OF THIS JOINT")
1:24 he said ask for the manager. Im a kind of person whose easily get panic when talking to a big person like manager. Can i just go to HR and ask this: "Good Morning I'm looking for a job and I just want to know which opening are available and what are the hiring process?" Anyone can help me? Im bad at eye to eye contact. 😭😭
I walked into the GNC store two days ago that I applied at and saw a dude in there and I assumed it was just a worker but then he told me he was the manager and I sort of froze. I told him I put in an application maybe a month ago and asked if he would review it and he said he would do it on Monday(today). I really am hoping that I can land the job but the bad thing is my hair was extremely messed up so I don't know if that may have come into a factor but I had a nice polo on at least. I would put in the application first online and then ask for the manager because you might be wasting your time if you just ask for a manager without applying first hand and gas money because everytime I've walked in without applying they would tell me to go online and apply. That's my mom's stupid way of doing it and I told her this ain't the 90s and it doesn't work like that anymore. She just never listens.🤦♂️
Feel like i wont get a job cause the way i look. (I dont have tats or anything out of the ordinary) im always labeled as a person that looks like a trouble maker, it sucks cause im just trying to get this legal money. I dont have a record either just a regular brownskind venezuelan from florida..
@@mckenziehellum6538 i appreciate that very much; truly. I have bills to pay, i havnt had luck. Been doing landscapping here and there but that dosnt keep up. Got to keep the ball rolling until i find something.
I walked into the GNC in my mall yesterday to try and get a job and the manager said that he would review my application and looked at my Polo I had on then looked at me up and down and my hair was all fucked up. I know what you mean man the struggle is real and been trying to find a new job and I've been unemployed since June. If it wasn't for my family bitching at me for getting one every chance they could get then I wouldn't even care about trying to get one to begin with. Thing is the dude said he was hiring and that he would review it but I already know he ain't even gonna look through it. He said he was short staffed but if he really "needed" a worker then I would have got the interview right then and there. I also live here in Florida but getting a job is tough af here. I fucked up my life early I feel like so that's the sad reality of why I still live with family and have to deal with their BS. Some people need to get a clue and look at people like us and give us a chance and outsiders need to stfu because it ain't easy to just land a job in a few seconds. That's the thing that aggrivates me about the job search is people don't know how to lay tf off or be supportive.
Im in Greenwich rn and I’m about the hand in my cv in every store in here.... I’m fucking nervous, I’m 18, I don’t speak fluent English and I’ve got social anxiety. That’s called stepping out of my comfort zone isn’t it
We're all human just find a way to prep yourself you don't have to keep eye contact the whole time the main thing is availability and answering questions about yourself
Me : enters the store or the office confident * Employee: hello, how can I help you? * Me: I would like to see the Manger * Employee: the manager is busy,sorry apply online and don't waste our time
@@elkay7100 Ty for replying! Almost forgot ;P 3 days ago I submitted a walk-in res. to two stores, the first one was kinda iffy, the Manager said to do it online (I also told them I applied at this place months ago online as well) And just asked if I could leave my res. with em. For the second, they asked my age, happily took my res and am literally an hour away for the job interview! (Got a call back the same day I sent the res.) It's a hit or miss tbh, like some stores can be a bit rude, but overall it took way quicker, just socially riskier to the dignity!! Lmao, 😂😂
"ask to speak to the manager" - this is why you should do your research before venturing into the unknown. This is the factual, accurate information the world needs, not crap about war and stress over climate change (let's face it, humans have their own personal worries which are greater than climate change and all this garma except for car dependency and holiday visas (owning a car will NEVER fit into my budget and I can go on 10 more holidays without a car) is advice that I'll forget and ignore), or extra unnecessary panic, but something useful and valuable that could pull the trigger. Climate change is being slowed down and we will each net zero eventually.
What should you do if the employee (AUTOMATICALLY) say's the hiring mgr/supervisor is busy OR may I tell the mgr. why you are here. Should you leave your resume ??? if you get either one of these responses from the employee or just come back later? any ideas??? Thanks.
@@rosebuddapaccman yes! I got the job but applying in person was difficult. I live in India.. A highly populated Contry.. Jobs like these vanish just like that... So I tried applying online in my local area and it worked. All the tips helped me during the interview.
Tactical Nite nah retail stores are good too work at and hire at 16. just apply as a cashier. retail stores however do not pay as much as some other types of jobs so if you need to pay car insurance/ car bills/ gas you might have to work more
@@Veyanz they can't help you if you don't have a resume, they need to see your resume so that they guarantee you an interview. if you live in Canada, they are a lot of places that help you with building your resume even if you dont have any experience.
I stayed consistent wit McDonald’s for once and took the initiative to call back the hiring manager n some bitch picked up and said call back tomorrow she’s doing orientation,I don’t even see the point of staying consistent like they usually say to do lol
