Resume for retail job...
I just moved to Los Angeles from New York where I went to makeup school at MUD. I'm trying to find work asap, and I'm going to be applying at as many makeup counters and stores as I can. I guess I'm looking for answers from makeup counter employees and/or managers. My question is, what should I list on my resume? Right now I have listed all my makeup work experience, and my education at MUD. I have two years of retail experience that I think would be helpful to share, do I list that with the makeup work or should I create another section for past employment? I also worked at Dish Network a few years back, and Pizza Hut years before that, should I list those? Finally, I'll be dropping off my resume as these counters, should I bring my portfolio and leave a business card as well? Thank you so much for reading, if you know how I should go about this, I'd be happy to hear it. Nov 15 12 09:23 pm Link Sent a resume format in a pm hope it helps.

I wouldn't put your Pizza Hut employment. Definitely bring your portfolio. It's not a requirement for a makeup counter job, but it will definitely give you an edge against the competition. Get to the counters NOW. They want to hire for holiday staff in time for Black Friday which is next week. Nov 16 12 05:05 am Link Yeah I know this a good time to go. I'll focus on detailing my retail work then. Thank you! Nov 16 12 12:35 pm Link |
