Secretarial/Office Type of Jobs (University for Summer)?

We Answered:

If you are in the US, start with temp agencies. They can usually help you with a short-term position. Starting in January is a good idea to start applying, that way they can keep you on file for when you end your term. Be upfront with your timeline, and don't be afraid to apply with more than one agency if you can.

Do a google search for 'temp agencies' and your city. This will be a good start for you.

Summer job for a university student

We Answered:

I had the same problem last year. I think a majority of high-street shops and supermarkets etc want to hire people that they can keep on for a long time - like 16 year olds who have dropped out of school and want to work permanently.

I would recommend getting in touch with your University to see what's going on - there will no doubt be a careers department, and they're there to help you find work!

What would have been good (although it's a bit late now) would have been to apply to a company to do a summer internship. Have a search through for next year though - deadlines are usually january/february, so have a look at all the large companies in whatever sector you'd like to work for and apply - they will no doubt take you on if you're getting such great grades.

Have a look on reed.co.uk in the Temp Zone, see if there's anything that takes your fancy, even though most of it is admin-related. You're not doing anything wrong though, and you should definitely aim higher!

I am a university student looking for a summer job. How do i write a cv/cover letter for a sales assistant job?

We Answered:

Cover letters allow potential employees to show employers how their experience and qualifications match up perfectly with the needs of the company. Make sure it's well organized, polished, and sells your attributes. Check out this article from Monster.com on writing cover letters:
