But like Annie said, I learned that going together with a friend isn't something you should do when applying for any job.
lol yeears ago, I went with a friend to hand out resumes, the FIRST store we went into the manager decided to grill us and popped a few interview questions. And of course being inexperienced and young with no previous job/interview experience we were stumbling...it was quite embaressing and to top it off she condescendingly finishes with, "Oh, and just a word of advice, don't ever go in stores together when you apply for jobs."
haha we were quite dispirited afterwards..
I applied at some places with a friend - I did NOT want to at all ebcause this friend acted like a complete child and was all clingy... I told her clearly that we should enter the store at different times (like she goes in first, while i go into another store and then we switch stores, etc) and she just followed me in... and when I say "can I have an application?" she'll appear and be like "meeeee too! Get one for me, (and she even says my name...)" =_=;;;
At one place, the girl at the cash register said, "...are you guys friends?" and gave us a weird look and my friend was like "yeah!! we're job hunting together, yay!" =-=;;; but in the end, I got the job and she didn't ^^
