Re: First Job

when you say graduating, from highschool or post-secondary?
high-school u can aim for a starter retail job...
post-secondary you can aim for office reception etc...
but not matter what you gotta pay your dues before you get a higher paying job..
you just have to work your way up...
and u have to think that considering you have no work experience and you are getting paid higher than minimum, u probably have to work damn hard because your boss would expect more from you since u are getting paid more..
i know alot of people that worked at superstore as their first job, easy job, good pay and benefits
and you wanna work at a place you'll enjoy at least for a year or so... it never looks good on a resume when you work for a few months then quit... unless it was at playland, but then that's a different story...
go look at craig's list, sometimes parents are looking for a tutor for elementary school kids.. that's a good first job if u are good w. kids
