Job Applications In-Person
Applying for job in-person is a little opposed than applying for employment online. It's not as complicated, but, you will require being prepared to apply and interview on the spot.If you are applying for a position at a big company, call first to see if there are openings or visit the customer service center or human resources office and ask if you can submit an application for employment. You may be asked to fill out an application at a hiring kiosk. In this case, you will use a computer or a free-standing kiosk to apply.
Also be prepared to fill out a paper job application. So, bring the information you'll need to fill out an application with you.
- Full contact information including your address, zip code and a phone number where you can be reached
- Educational information including dates of graduation
- Names and addresses of previous employers
- Dates of employment
- References
- Resume (if you have one)
Have a pen so you don't require borrowing one to fill out the application.
Know what days/hours you are available to work.
Be prepared for a brief on-the-spot interview.
Dress should be neat and tidy. Business casual is particularly appropriate.
Make sure your hair and fingernails are well groomed.
Wear moderate shoes.
Follow-up - call in a week or so to check on the status of your application.
