CMUThought Community Thought 100 day Challenge

The internet has become a common place to find products, socialize, and even get that dream job that you have been working towards. For most high school and college kids they are looking to find any part time job at their local establishments to earn money for college or just spending money to pay for their care. I was impressed to find a site that helped young adults find Jobs Part Time Under 18 and provided a resource on various skills needed to interview. Unless you are taking certain business classes in high school or college they rarely teach what to put in a resume or what to look for during an interview. Having some of this essential knowledge could make the difference of not only getting the job but also the pay level at which you are hired. If the employer sees a strong and confident individual that has done their work they are more willing to invest more into this future employee than waist time on an hourly employee who is just there to collect a pay check.

The workforce is very competitive with more people looking for work so being able to stand apart from the others that will be applying could open the doors to current and future employment opportunities. Many businesses know and understand of hiring and firing employees and they are always looking down the road to who they can retain and possibly promote. Having your resume polished and knowing the right way to interview could set you up for long term success.
