I dazzle employers before they hire me?

Question

I am trying to begin on changing my life a little at a time, and my first step is looking for a job. I don't have any formal clothing and I am applying for my first job. I have never been hired, due to taking extra classes over the Summer. I'm not talking Summer school but SAT preps, and college classes, just to be ready for my now last year of High School.How can I get employers to want to hire me even after i ask if they're hiring? How can I leave a lasting impression, in a nice way, even a day after I leave? And second, say I will be applying at a Pharmacy, how and who do I ask if they are hiring without sounding bizarre, odd, or like a person that does not know a thing?

Two, what if they say they are not hiring, what do I do or say or even react? What can i do or say that will make them want me to work for them? Something that actually works please, not something copied from a website just so you can get the Best Answer. I want honest, tried and true answers.

Answer 2

Honey you sound nervous! It sounds cliche, but just be yourself - if employers see that you're relaxed in your own skin, they will feel more comfortable with you. And if they say they're not hiring at the moment, then they're not hiring! It's nothing personal. Not every business will have a position vacant, just move on to the next one.

for an example...you walk into a pharmacy and see the chicky babe at the counter...

You smile, make eye contact and say: "Hi, my name is x*x and I'd like to talk to the manager (this will often be the head pharmacist) regarding any positions vacant."

The chicky babe ("pharmacy assistant") might be happy to help you out, or not. If she says "there's no positions available at the moment", smile and say "that's ok, would I be able to speak with the manager anyway?" it's a reasonable request to speak to the manager, and its not her job to turn people away. then just explain to the manager why you're interested in working as a pharmacy assistant, and ask him/her to keep a copy of your resume/CV on file in case of future positions vacant.

whatever you do, don't be intimidated by the other employees when asking about positions vacant. they were once asking for a job themselves, and they have no reason to be s****. or smug. if they are, just don't be affected by them because it will show the manager that you are possibly a better candidate for a job than his current employees.

Good luck! I'm sure you have a lot to offer an employer. and pharmacy assistant work is great, i did it for a year and got discounts off all the makeup, expensive medications, lollies and other stuff :-)
