So I have a job interview tomorrow at Walmart for a position as a cashier. I've had a job before, but it was at one of my dad's legal offices, so I wasn't interviewed. Any advice?

Worst thing ever. These fucking idiots had me waiting in their fucking thing for an hour to tell me that I wasn't on their fucking interview list, even though they called me. Whatever. I have an interview at my friend's job later..

I've heard that Wal-Mart treats their employees like crap.

My mom works at Wal-Mart and she has never had an issue.

My brother also use to work there, again no issues. The customers on the other hand is a different story.

I was told not to wear jeans. I dressed nicely, but everyone else in the interviewing waiting room was in jeans. I was just like "um.. even if I'm not on the list you called me, and not only did I arrive on time, I wore the appropriate attire, unlike everyone else in this room"

I didn't get the job at my friend's work because they're fully staffed, but Max (the manager.. I know everyone there,) told me they have a high turnover rate, so he'll call me when a pot opens up.

Yeah, i told the bitch to fuck herself.. and then stole gum form a package and left the package at a register..

I had the interview at Moe's (my friend's job,) already, he just didn't hire me because they don't need people yet.. so hopefully someone gets fired soon lol.

Imo, finding a job is hell, among the hardest thing in the world.

I've been job hunting for 2 years, and still no job. I've applied to grocery stores, restaurants, libraries, retirement/nursing homes, etc. Mostly answer the ads they post on newspaper websites, where they say "e-mail resume" and "no phone calls, please." But I have 3 ROPs, which I mention on my resume, which is experience at computers, kitchens, and floral design.

Never had 1 job interview, so no failure stories yet.

That sounds so annoying! It's probably better if you don't work for them. Good luck with getting the other job.

I'm in the same situation at the moment... except not for as long as two years... that sounds really crap.

Yeah, I think about a month ago, you started a thread explaining how hard it was to get a job, right? And your experiences trying. Any luck with that?

Well I think it was more of a rant, but yes. No luck so far, I'm kind of running out of places to look... meh.

Still trying though.

that's weird. If you're over 16, you really shouldn't be having that much trouble. Your best bet is to go into places asking for an application and to schedule an interview.
