Wrong hunting section, try google though

Well… maybe leaving your deer rifle at home… I think that would be a good idea.

EDIT: then delete it if you know it’s in the wrong section… no need to get all pissy about it.

wrong section this is about hunting animals not jobs

Have a good haircut.

Dress for success. That is dress like a working person, not like a kid. You need to dress to impress a 40 year old boss, not your friends.

Have a good attitude.

Have a resume. Google for how to make one.

Be confident.

Tell them that you are always on time, do what you are told, have a good attitude and are a fast learner. (Those are the things that you need to do to keep a job)

Google search for more tips.

take a brain so you can figure out things better than you can select categories for your question

Sense you asked in this section I would recommend taking you deer rifle with you, you know kind of like a motivational thing for them to hire you

just barrow yer dads lawn mower and walk door to door for $ 20.00 a yard….theres still some summer left..no point in wasting it working a job!

Jobs are sneaky little suckers, you really gotta sneak up on ‘em if you want to snag one.

Usually when I go, I wear the best urban camouflage you can get – professional business attire. A nice haircut will keep you from spooking away any potential employers.

I usually arm myself with a resume chambered in 8.5×11″ resume paper (yellow in color). A reference sheet as a backup weapon is also ideal, as sometimes a resume alone won’t adequately do the job.

Follow these tips and you just may leave your hunt with a job in your back pocket.

Right on VLD and zchris…xyz earned a laugh!

Pursue the job, if you don’t hear back right away, stop back in or call the prospective employer again. Just don’t go overboard on this…Be persistent but not insistent.

When you are in an interview: Make eye contact, and answer the questions with a sincere answer. Don’t use too many canned punchlines. If asked about your personal interests give a sincere and very brief answer. Don’t go on all day about how you love to hunt, after all you are there for a job, not social time.

Switch off your cell phone before you go to an interview or talk with prospective employer. NEVER take a call while in an interview. Wear a watch to show that you are time conscious, use unscented deodorant, and no cologne (or perfume.) Match your attire to the job you are trying to get, always dress well, but don’t wear a business suit if you are applying for a construction job. Look like the kind of person that will fit well into the job you are seeking.

If you have had a bad boss in the past, don’t use it as an excuse for why you’ve left a previous job. To the interviewer this screams out that you have a “problem with authority.”

OK, this question is off topic, and so is my answer, but good luck.
