The Skys the Limit

The Skies the Limit

When the last year came for us college students at Indiana University, there was a sense of freedom like nothing that could be imagined by anyone else in the universe.  There was electricity in the air that covered the sky June 2003.  If it was raining we didn't know and if it was a day of sunshine we didn't care.  It was time.  From Freshman year to Senior Year students were prepared and trained through courses, tests, papers, and books to launch into the workforce with a career rolled out for us at our feet.  No matter what life brings students are able to pick up dust themselves off and continue on a journey of a career path where the skies the limit.  We were told that service is number one.

In circles I turn with seasons.  If you made it to this part of the blog you will see that writing is obediance and a discipline of practice to choose to do for a focused reader.  Mistakes.  Mistakes?   Okay lets just go over the parts of wholeness.  First, organization and to be organized means to have maybe no coffee or other stains on you job application.  Organization and neatness could mean cleanliness which is a virtue along with patience and peace.  Lets see the connection:  When you go into a place of employment to ask for a job, depending on the time in your life you may change your wardrobe, your hair, and maybe your jewelry around but the application for work never changes.

Sometimes you will bite off more than you can chew and so I've been advised to just spit it out.  For example,  your life may seem big and out of order but it real isn't because you can only do one thing at a time.  I read this from a .95 cent pamplet called Acceptance but read what you want.  Back to the job application if you are like me you will be sure that the more you hand out the more jobs will pour on you and water your unemployment garden and that will be a job in itself.

What is a job?  That is a whole other blog and lets just end this blog saying that filling out a paper copy of a job application can require a lot of information that is always the same:  Your full name and high school or GED information, personal or work references which will change sometimes.  You'll be asked if you attended a trade school or correspondence school and if you committed a crime.  Military service is also a part of the job application. 

Then on tiny little lines you will squeeze in the former employers starting with the most present and the dates, addresses, name, salary, position, duties, and reason for leaving each employer.  Here you will most likely need to take a small break before starting this section to get a cup of water or a breather then very neatly and small write in the most valueable answers to all these areas of job information requested.  On the back side if you don't get a survey or additional paperwork of approval mostly questions about you, you just sign then at the bottom after reading authorization passages which can run longer than you pen or computer time limit before erasing the entire application.
