Following is a guide with helpful tips for students to assist in this search. The local Canada Employment Centre can provide you with a social insurance number, counselling, and job placement. Review the jobs available on the bulletin board, register as looking for work, pick up information material, and talk with an ernployment coun- sellor about your future career plans and what present jobs can help you towards that goal. Talk with your student services/guidance counsellor to obtain àd- vice on the kind of work suitable, ask if they would provide a charac- ter reference to a potential employer, and get information on youth opportunities. Following this you can: contact the local Chamber of Commerce; check community bulletin boards; put the word out and speak to friends of the family as they may know of a job; check the classified section in the newspaper; store windows; youth employment ser- vices, and ternporary and privateernployrnent agencies. It is a good idea to have on hand a resume to give to a potential em- ployer. Your resurne should include your name, address, phone number, S.I.N., education, work experience, what machines and business equipment you know how to operate, personal interests, and references. Once you have identifiedý a potential employer, phone or drop by the place of business and leave your resume. You may be asked to be intervieweci right away s0 be prepared, or you may be asked to fill out an application. Read it carefully, and be clear and concise when answering the questions. If an interview is set up, make sure you arrive on tirne, make sure you know the name of the person who is interviewing you, dress ap- propriately for the job, and be neat and dlean. During the interview, you have to convince the employer that you are the right person for the job by displaying a healthy attitude, a desire to take on respon- sibility, and your qualifications and the hours you are available. This is also the tirne for you to decide whether you want the job. When the interview cornes to an end, thank the interviewer for the opportunity to discuss job opportunities with hlm or her, and make sure to ask when a decision will be reached. Don't get discouraged if you don't succeed at first, something is bound to corne along. Good Luck! TAUNONRDo. L _ OSSLANO 80. E
