Everyone will say it ' s Photoshop , including haters . <| sep |> Jon wouldn ' t have even eaten yogurt in the first place . <| sep |> Looks way better , but like the other guys said , it kinda looks North Korean . Maybe remove the circle and make it a white star ? <| sep |> Her loyalty and bravery will be worthless if she gets stabbed defending a store . As a former retail worker , ain ' t no way I ' m putting my life on the line for some stuff on a shelf that doesn ' t belong to me . <| sep |> Don ' t be afraid of the staffing companies . Agreed that they probably aren ' t the most highly qualified judges , but if you impress them enough they will be handing you off to someone who is . Just another step in the process , and they may have information about openings you don ' t . Do be advised though that they are salesmen and their biggest concern is getting someone to fill a spot asap so they get paid . Don ' t expect much from them as far as help or support . You ' ll get contacted out of the blue about several positions and then not hear from them again . Just a numbers game for them . But it ' s a numbers game that companies use a whole lot these days . There ' s no point in a hiring manager reading through 6302 resumes when he could pay someone $ 2 k to narrow that down to 10 that have already been screened . And speaking of numbers games . That ' s what this is . If a 3 % success rate is all you get applying online then you need to apply to 100 positions for three interviews .

Most universities have departments for career development to assist alumni . Use that resource if you can . It got me my first job which was terrible , but my first job got me my second job . They ' ll also help with resume writing . Applying online means your resume really needs to stand out . It ' s all they know about you . Play up your internship experience and any extracurricular experience you had in school . And especially anything that you can point to with quantifiable results . IE you can say you assisted in manufacturing process upgrades or you can say that you spearheaded kaizen efforts for manufacturing improvements in quality and production that increased output by 7 % and decreased scrap and defects by 13 %. Note I ' m not saying lie , but definitely find a way to state your facts in the most appealing light possible . Use buzzwords . Once you start seeing results get professional help to prep you for interviews as well career center at school again . You ' ve got a half hour to prove to a company why you could be a great potential 40 year investment . Make sure you don ' t waste that chance since 3 % is an awfully low rate of return .
