GETTING THE JOB- RESUME Hand out your resume to many places youre considering to work; not just one. The more you hand it out to, the more likely you are to get a call back. Dont just depend on one potential workplace. If you dont get any calls back at all, wait a while, go back to hand them out again! However, be careful not to be annoying 5. GETTING THE JOB-INTERVIEW Once you are contacted by a potential employer, you will be asked to come in for an interview. When getting ready for the interview, it is usually helpful to look good. Most potential employers are more likely to hire people that present themselves as nice looking, on the first meeting. To them, it shows respect and confidence. Confidence is also important. Hold your head up and speak with a clear voice, but try not to seem over confident or cocky. **Note** Some employers prefer you not to wear access jewlery (ie; piercings) but it depends each employer will be different. 6.
