Default jobs

pick a spot on Macleod trail, twirl around a bunch of times with your eyes closed. Throw a rock in any direction. Apply at the business in which the rock first makes contact with, and you wil get that job.

There are a whack of jobs out there!

Well I don't have a psychology degree but you should be able to figure this one out...

Calgary + Looking for Job + Have lots of excuses + demanding =


Oh, when applying for a job you should at least use the spell checker.......just a hint.....

You must have an idea of which firm or company you would want to work for when you graduate. My suggestion would be to apply for a job at that company doing anything. This will give you an "in" and help you find out if it is really a place you would want to work.

P.S. Back in my day, you did anything that became available as it was the only thing available. ie: Would you care to upsize your meal for an extra 15 cents.

Best advice yet.

Basically, think what job you would LOVE to do, then go apply. You just might get it.
