Who else worked regular jobs and nothing related to a real career right after graduating from college?

Question by MyStEriOuS: Who else worked regular jobs and nothing related to a real career right after graduating from college?
I have a BS in Criminal justice and there are little to no entry level jobs in that area…especially b/c i have no experience.

It seems im going to just have to work at a bank or as a customer service rep.. =( Who else is going through a similar situation.??
Jason, your probably right..but from what i see every entry level job for criminal justice requires some type of experience be it internship..which i never did.

Has anyone here ever worked in a T-mobile call center?

Question by John S: Has anyone here ever worked in a T-mobile call center?
I just recently got a job at a T-mobile call center. Has anyone ever worked in a t-mobile call center? I am just looking for any advice regarding to working in a t-mobile call center. Which types of tools are used? Any advice would be greatly appreciated thanks. And by the way I am going to be working in the technical support department.

Answer by Pandas4me
I haven’t worked for T-Mobile but I have worked at a call center and the people you talk to are usually angry & rude to you. You would have a telephone and a computer and that’s about it. It may be technical support, but you usually have a script to follow and you just ask questions and try to figure out what is really wrong. I wouldn’t recommend it, but it may be something you would enjoy.

Have you ever been a consumer for the company you worked for and had a bad experience?

Question by ASL*ImL: Have you ever been a consumer for the company you worked for and had a bad experience?
I’ve had a couple less than satisfactory experiences and it has to do more with the customer service end of our job than the actual job as in being courteous and I really hope it was just a bad day for that particular person and not their standard.
Any one have bad experiences with being on the receiving end of whatever your company/job is?

Answer by ♥~Carpe Diem ♥ Zebra Stripes~♥
Not sure why you have no answers. I will just follow up and see if I can help.

I notice that in just about every industry, customer service is not up to par. Along with that, management is usually not either and it trickles down. Management is sometimes to harsh on the workers which can cause discouragement. There again, if they do not care and do not implement rules, it is worse. Just this system, sorry to say.

Thanks in advance
The interview format is four hours group and a possible face to face if one progeresses through the day and isn’t cut

Best answer:

Answer by Dan
I was a Customer Service Agent for a major airline, but my interview was in 1963, and I don’t remember it much.

When you are being interviewed, tell your honest feelings, the way that you really feel, not what you may think someone wants to hear.

To dress for the interview, get rid of any body piercings, dress neatly in a dress shirt, ironed pants, and shined shoes. No jeans, tennis shoes, or t-shirts. You want to appear clean and neat. No dirty fingernails or hands.

Good luck.
Regards,
Dan

If I worked at a company more than once, should I list it more than once on my resume?

Question by clmbrgrl: If I worked at a company more than once, should I list it more than once on my resume?
I worked for a company and I left. A couple years later, I was rehired by the same company. Should I list it twice, or just add multiple dates under the same company?

Thank you.

Best answer:

Answer by Beaux Bells
I listed it twice to show some clarity and to keep chronological order.
Positions were different and it was just too much to keep together.

Q&A: Have you ever worked in the fast food industry?

Question by melpomena: Have you ever worked in the fast food industry?
How did you like it? I’m a cashier at Mcdonald’s and it’s been a really stressful experience. I’ve had jobs in customer service before, but I feel like the pressure to be really quick and juggle multiple orders is more taxing than other customer service jobs.
I have worked in a grocery store before. I didn’t like it much, but it was 100000x better than this.

Best answer:

Answer by Brian

Q&A: Hi Friends, This is regarding my job. I worked for a bpo with 1 year and 3 months experiences.?

Question by Kool S: Hi Friends, This is regarding my job. I worked for a bpo with 1 year and 3 months experiences.?
For some time now i am not feeling well. I consulted a doctor and he told need to have the bed rest for a month due to my personal health issues. My company needs one month notification for a resignation. But i wrote my resignation stating two weeks notifications due to illness. I do willing to produce my doctor certificate in this course. I want to know , whether the company can consider my issue or not? Is there any rule for this case from government employment polices. Is it they can pay me My other benefits , PF etc …

Best answer:

Answer by Oracle
I don’t understand your question(s). Are you asking whether your notice is sufficient under the special circumstances? Or are you asking whether your company is obligated to pay you for your sick leave and/or other unused benefits? Also, if you’re sick, why do you feel that you have to give your resignation? Most companies have disability and sick leave for just this purpose. Speaking with you HR department is the only way to answer your questions about your company’s policy.

Ever worked in a call center without killing yourself? Please tell me your strength to sit there everyday.?

Question by ♠: Ever worked in a call center without killing yourself? Please tell me your strength to sit there everyday.?
I know that no one is absolutely thrilled to come into their call center job everyday, but honestly, I’ve only taken calls for one day and hate it. It’s depressing, I don’t want to sit on the phone for 12 hours adding rate plans and troubleshooting their phone in their desk in china. After a call, I feel like a zombie, and I’m starting to fall asleep in between calls. One minute, I’m staring at the cubicle wall, the next I’m getting woken up by “ding ding” in my headset and have to sluggishly pull through the next call. Plus my system is extremely slow but I’m not allow to tell the customer that, so I have to fill the dead air with small talk while the system takes its sweet ol time on my handling time. Just wanted to know, how you all do it, what keeps you going?

Best answer:

Answer by roberticvs
I had a job doing this for one month while I was going through college. I HATED IT. There are plenty of other things to do out there to earn a little money. Don’t make yourself crazy. Human beings didn’t evolve to sit at desks.

Advice: Quit and find a different job.

I’ve did them before. They focus heavily on grammar and language, such as saying “ask” instead of “axe”.
