[QUOTE="Steely, post: 157123, member: 3301"] I am so sorry. What type of places is difficult child applying at? I am a manager in a store, and I know that retail is always looking for quality candidates. However, we also get a ton of "kids" appying - so it is important that difficult child try and differentiate herself from other "kids". What is her past experience? Does she have a little resume put together? If not, she should do that. And then when she is filling out the applications she should [I]always[/I] ask to speak to the manager. She should never ever leave the app with "whoever" at the counter. Once she at least has face time with a manager, even if it is for a minute, she increases of getting the job tenfold. She should then follow up and call the manager once a week until the manger literally says we are no longer hiring. PS - And no, in this day and age the tattoo has no bearing whatsoever. About 3/4 of our team of tattoos, including the 4 of the 6 managers. (Evidently I need to get on the stick and get out to a tattoo parlor:raspberry-tounge:) [/QUOTE]
