subject: Mandatory Requirements for You in Part-Time Job Listings [print this page] When you are applying for part-time job listings you may find that it is a totally different ball game to that of the job of a full-time professional position. In fact you might not even need a covering letter and a resume but these basics you will need for sure. Check them out if you are really serious about landing that part-time job listing.
Your Dress Code
Simply put, your attire should be considered as neat and tidy. For that matter, it would be very proper of you to wear business clothes. Although, to be fair, even khakis and a polo shirt could also do. Definitely out of the question are - tank tops, jeans, shorts or for that matter anything low cut or showing your belly.
Your feet are more important than you think. Statistics reveal that more people look at what you're wearing on your feet after they finish with what you have on your body. So keep those shoes low profile. Nothing too flashy or just the opposite like flip flops, spike heels, platforms. I am sure you get the idea.
The Well Groomed Effect
It does not end with clothes when you are looking for a part-time job. "They" are going to scrutinize you from head to toe, top to bottom, literally speaking. So watch out for what you are sporting on your head. That weird hair do. Weirder hair coloring. These are big time No Nos.
Just ensure that your hair is well groomed. And the same is for your finger nails. Any outlandish colors on your nails have to go. Keep it simple and sweet. Also any long nails would be out too.
After all, even though it's part-time, you are serious about getting that job aren't you?
Letting Out the Pro in You
Now's the time to pull up your socks and "fasten your seat belts." You will find that it separates you from the competition. And in case you did not realize it, yes, the competition is fierce. It is indeed a veritable concrete jungle out there. And yes, it is also the survival of the fittest.
So, go prepared for your interview. Take along with you all the information you will need such as -School and college dates. If you have worked previously, you will need the certificates of your previous employers along with their names, addresses and telephone numbers.
Very important for you to also note is that you will need references. These can even be of your teachers, neighbors or for that matter even your family doctor.
All this information will be needed for you to fill in the application form at the time of your interview. Off you go now, resting in the knowledge that you are fully prepared to land that part-time job your little heart so desires.
