Job Application Tips for teens

As a follow up to yesterday's post , I thought it would make sense to talk about the job application. Many employers will not require you to have a resume (especially if it is for a summer job) but most (if not all) will want you to fill out an application. There are some basic things to keep in mind, starting with the fact that the employer will judge you based on how you fill out the application. So remember the following:

• keep it G rated (especially the email eaddy)
• Spelling Counts
• Include extra curricular activities like: student council, sports, etc
• Do not include hobbies (ie, World of War Craft, etc..)
• Do Not lie (this will always come back to bite you in the you know where)
