Student Work Experience

Ana Said:

can a High school student get work experience in a hotel industry?

We Answered:

I'm sure if you walk into a hotel dressed professionally enough and explain to them that you want a job because you plan on pursuing hospitality later in life they will at least point you in the right direction if not hire you. You'll very likely start out as a maid or a bellhop first of course but experience is experience!

Jane Said:

where can i apply for student work experience in retail?

We Answered:

You can ask any retail shop actually, but since you are in Year ten your going have to say its work experience linked to your school

but if it hasnt got anything to do with your school, you have to say directly its private work experience

try everywhere eventually you will get a yes! = D

Norman Said:

I am a Business student with no work experience, how should I start?

We Answered:

Two possibilities, (1) research companies of interest and write letters to the Human Resources Department explaining the situation and asking for advice. This is speculative but, can work. (2) much more realistic, register at a temporary agency and tell them you are interested in office work. This will give you an opportunity to learn some thing that a university education does not teach, i.e. using MS Excel and MS Powerpoint.

Last summer I interviewed several potential interns with high GPA at major universities and rejected them all because they lacked basic office skills. I instead choose someone with an average GPA from a small college because she had worked at previous office jobs. I have a solid degree from a major university and my first years at a career were spent, typing, making spread-sheets, and photo-copying. They don’t tell you this in college but, you can’ manage something, you have zero practical knowledge of.
