Hi, I'm Amy! I work at Snagajob and today we're going to talk about
how to find a job. Specifically, we're going to talk about, "How do I get a job
when I don't have experience.
We hear this question a lot from first-time job seekers, teenagers
and folks that don't think they have any job experience.
Do you really not have any job experience?
Think about it.
You probably have done some volunteering,
lawn care for the next door neighbor, babysat for somebody up the street.
These jobs are perfectly fine to include
entry-level resume, so don't discount the experience that you have from working those positions.
One job seeker that we met actually was fifteen and looking for her first job
and she used her experience baking biscuits with her family every Sunday
morning to apply to a biscuit-making job.
That's perfect! That is the kind of initiative that employers want to see in a first-time job hunter. They're looking
for somebody who is smart and who can apply themselves, and in this instance she already had specific
experience doing the job that they were looking for. Look for any skill or experience you can
highlight. Just because you weren't paid for it, doesn't mean it's not valuable to employers.
For most entry-level jobs or summer jobs, employers are really looking for
a great attitude, so make sure you bring that and whatever experience you already
have and you should be pretty well set. Thanks for listening today. Don't forget to subscribe
