text: any tips on applying for a job? im trying to apply and wondering if there is anything i need to know. right, look - no job is really that difficult that they have to look far and wide to find someone to fit the bill. what people are looking for is someone who can fit in/ add to the team. don't be a stiff, be friendly and fun. shy doesn't work. nobody is going to want to hire a moody jerk who just gets his work done over in the corner. oh, an no matter how cliche it may sound - they will ask "what your weaknesses are". they can't help themselves, so be prepared. just say that you "lack practical experience," that'll do the trick. now go get'em tiger!
