Answer #1

You just exclude the part prior job experience and before submitting your cv (resume) tell them that it is your first job.

Still include all the other sections. Like personal details, education, hobbies and interests (and remember to include that you love animals in this section - keep it short though, you don’t want to sound desperate).

The interview will depend on what they ask you. Just be prepared to answer questions on whether you’ve worked with animals before (you don’t have to have job experience, personal experience will work) etc etc.

Oh and dress well for the interview. Even thought it is for a pet store, you still want give a good first impression: Don’t wear any jeans.

Answer #2

Oh this is always fun. During the interview be very thoughtful about your answers. and on your resume make sure you have references and fill those up.

If it is your first job, make sure you fill the resume up as much as possible. what counts the most though in my thoughts is the interview. Just google up “common questions asked during interviews” and become accustomed to the type of questions they ask.

Answer #3

the owner of blythes sporting goods gave my class good tips on applying for your 1st job…

make sure your application/resume is REALLY neat and easy to read
if you dont have any job experience tell why you want the job, what you love about it
if they dont call after the next 2-3 days, call them or go back in and let the owner, yes the owner, know you are still interested. that way your name and face are fresh in his mind when he goes to hire.

hope this advice helps!!! :)
