How long after orientation will I start work?
I went to orientation on May 22nd for the local amusement park. It wasn't a one on one training. We went over the rules for 2 hours and then tried on our uniforms. After I showed my HR person that my uniform fit she said I could go home. It is now May 28th and she hasn't called. I still have my uniform and ID badge but haven't started work or any kind of other training at all! The HR told me that it was required to go to a 7 day probation orientation period were if we miss a day then we get fired. She never told me when I had to be back, no dates or times, not even a "see you tomorrow." I am really getting worried now! What should I do? I was on will call before if that helps. #human-resources #manager #hiring #employers #teenagers #emergency

I have no work experience! How can I acquire a job?
It's time to pull my own weight, yikes! Recently I applied to various famous franchises online, the only problem is, they never responded :( . With no success online I decided to visit a "now hiring" good ol' McD's and ask for an application. I completed the application and returned it to a manager. After waiting for a couple weeks, still no response. I even went back to the McDonald's, gave them a hello, and "showed initiative" as my mom suggested. Still without response I feel quite discouraged (a big no no in the job hunting process). I've been told getting a minimum wage job for a kid like me would not require a resume, but I feel like it may be necessary to create one in order to land a job since I have no work experience (but plenty of volunteerism and extra curricular commitment!). Any tips for creating a resume? Whats the best way to go about landing a job? How did *you* land your first job? #resume #hiring #first-job
