Answer 1

quit worrying about getting a job outside of school. you need serious help with your grammar, spelling and sentence structure, so focus on those instead.

at 16 school should be your job!

besides, anyone who can communicate in an intelligent manner will go much farther in life than one who can not.

Answer 2

Most clothing stores have you fill out an application and take people w/no experience.  Check out these sample resumes for people w/no work experience.

i already gave u the C.V. Sample module...  

For Clothes Shop , you dont need any special interview,,, Just give ur C.V and talk positive with the person of incharge...

Act Smart , use some special talent while facing a Interview...

You know am a student in a University & working Partime for a lawyer... i didn had any big experience but its all in our talent & the way of talking to attract them ;)

Dont worry! you can face it

best of luck!

Well, retail is a field that anyone can enter.  It is a job that doesn't require prior experience.  That's why they start off making very little money.  You can always get a retail job on a basic level.  The only time that experience is going to come into play is when you want to work in a specialized store, such as a jewelry store or sporting goods store.  If you want a job in the field with more responsibility, you will have to work your way up or come in with some sort of educational credentials.  

Answer 5

I have been in retail for over ten years and am currently a district manager for a Retail store. What you need to do is Go in fill out the application and give it directly to the store manager. Make an statement with your appearance. By that I mean dress for success. As far as skills you can tell the manager as far as experience I have no work history but prove that you are dependable and insure that you are willing to show that you are a good choice and you will work what hours are needed good honest people that have a good work eithic are hard to find.
