I need some help getting a job. Right now I'm 21. I never had a job in high school. Just focused on school and extra curriculars. Finished high school, went in to community college and am finally moving on to transfer this next fall. I've been busy with an extra curricular as well while I've been in CC and that's even made me a few dollars on the side because it's music related. I've had one part time job. The guy didn't need my help or his other interns help for long though so that only lasted about a year and a half. I don't really count that because my mom referred me to him. My mom is single parent and I'm at home with her. She does ok. And my dad who I'm still in touch with gave me a little money when I finished high school so I've had a bit of a buffer. I only spend on gas, school, basic food and maybe a game/movie once in awhile. I'm tired of not being able to support myself. Especially since I have a girlfriend now. How do I get a job. I have no experience I can put on a resume. All I can put is my extra curricular school stuff and maybe the part times shit. I just want a low end basic retail job. When ever I apply to stores. It's always the same story. Fill out app/ask manager if opening position, never get a response back/we'll call you in a week. Call back on my own position has been filled and so on. When I go in person I always wear a nice dress shirt, slacks and a tie. Shave. I do have long hair which I'm cutting soon but even that is always tied back in a clean pony tail/just showered What am I doing wrong
