Well I've decided to apply for a full-time job:D ! I really kinda wanted to wait about 5 more years until my kids are all out of school, but this job is the perfect one for me which I am highly qualified for. This would be with my old employer so I could get my years of service back and my vacation time. That is why this is the only place I would consider working full-time for since other companies would only give me 2 weeks of vacation a year. We could also use the extra money since my oldest is starting college and the gas prices:yuck: !

I know this is a long shot since many people will be applying, but if you could please say a prayer for me that if this is meant to be that it happens for me.

I've completed my on-line resume and will be submitting it tomorrow (want to reveiw it one more time). Any tips on on-line resume's so I can stand out?

Thank you everyone!
 
I pray if this is God's will for you and your family, that you will be working full time very soon!
 
If I had tips on how to make an online resume stand out, I'd be selling them! :) I wish you the best of luck, and pray that your resume is the only one that they are able to ready because for some odd reason all other submitted resume's show up in binary code! :) 01110001010001011011110000- HAHAHAHAHA LOL
 
The only suggestion I have is to make sure you use some of the same wording in your experience that they use in the job description/requirements. Best wishes. I'll be praying.
 
That would be wonderful! Prayers coming your way!

Thank you so much! I applied - we will see what happens. I'm hoping to at least get an interview. I feel I at least have a chance if I get an interview.
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What are some effective ways to make my application stand out?

To make your application stand out, tailor your resume and cover letter to highlight relevant skills and experiences that align with the job description. Use specific examples of your achievements and quantify them when possible. Additionally, consider including a personal touch, such as a brief story that illustrates your passion for the role or the company.

How important is networking when applying for a full-time job?

Networking is crucial when applying for a full-time job. It can help you gain insights into the company culture, learn about unadvertised job openings, and get referrals from current employees. Attend industry events, connect with professionals on LinkedIn, and reach out to your existing contacts to expand your network.

Should I follow up after submitting my application?

Yes, following up after submitting your application is a good practice. Wait about one to two weeks after submitting your application, then send a polite email to the hiring manager or recruiter expressing your continued interest in the position. This shows initiative and can keep you on their radar.

What role do prayers or positive affirmations play in the job application process?

To prepare for a job interview, research the company thoroughly, understand its values, and review the job description in detail. Practice common interview questions and prepare your own questions to ask the interviewer. Additionally, consider conducting mock interviews with a friend or mentor to build your confidence and refine your answers.
