I've tried the usual corporate websites going directly through HR. I have almost 15 years experience on the retail side of auto sales - I even had a regional sales manager for Nissan submit my resume to Nissan with a reference and didn't even get a call! Is there someone who works for a manufacturer that could share their secret to getting a job?

1 answer - Asked By: rio180 - 5/7/2008
I currently work at a corporation run restaurant. I started in the kitchen and within 8 months have learned things that people there years have never learned. I'm the hardest worker and I'll be graduating college in under a year. The assistant general manager and the regional supervisor ABOVE the general manager of the restaurant are both on board with me becoming an assistant manager. However, the general manager of this restaurant is taking his time and is trying to make things seem fair because I've advanced so quickly; even though I deserve it. I've contemplated designing a written paper to my general manager voicing all of the opinions and facts that are surrounding every reason why I should be getting this promotion. Does anyone have any ideas for me? The restaurant is Vinny T's of Boston, if that helps anyone.

I'm 19 years old so I'm old enough to get the job, however I do not have any prior work experience. I play bass guitar for my band and can also play guitar, a little bit of drums, and can sing so I know about instruments and stuff. I'm just wondering what kind of questions they will ask in the interview. Also how much of a discount do I get for working there and what would be the pay?

For the job? A personal letter, well worded to the CEO in NY? Or do you think this would be overstepping boundaries? Again, a worldwide major company, the position is somewhere else (where I live in America). The application process allowed for a cover letter which I submitted. But I really really want this job. So would it seem bold and courageous, or creepy and overstepping?
