Looking for a job in helping in office work

If you know of a place you'd like to work in your town you could go ask if they are hiring.
You could check out www.craigslist.org, or google work for your town, or online jobs.

If you have some basic computer and telephone skills you should qualify for an entry level office job. The good news is that every state has a minimum wage they must pay you.

Next, identify companies that have openings that you qualify for and have someone help you prepare a simple resume and cover letter. Even if you are required to fill out an application a resume is a nice touch. Put some personality in your cover letter to make it stand out from the competition.

Finally, practice your presentation skills. Try to anticipate some interview questions and get a friend to practice with you. Play it safe and wear a suit (male or female) to all interviews. Opinions are formed at first glance, and if you have gotten to the interview stage you want a prospective employer to see you at your best. If it is a casual work environment you can dress down once you've landed the job.

Once hired, get as much on the job training as you can. Your manager or the Human Resources manager can help you with goals and how to get there.

Good luck!
