Why does it take so long for them to review my application?
Hello my name is Kristen And I am 16 years old, I have put in a application for McDonalds Awhile ago and I called them a few times and they said that I needed to talk to the hiring guy and I called back and they said that they have not Reviewed my application. So I have gave up on trying to get a job at McDonalds. What should I do now?
How is the job search going?I hope that you are having better luck today
Hello Kristen, I was very eager to work when I was your age too. During the summer months I always had a job working as a lifeguard and never had any issues finding a public swimming pool in need of help. If you are a decent swimmer and don't mind working with kids, you should contact the local parks and recreations department within your county. They can advise you on where to take a lifeguard training course. These classes usually last for a couple of days and are not difficult to pass if you swim well. Some of the classes are even offered for free, but you must become certified in advance of applying for a lifguard position. Most of the lifeguards I worked with were teenagers and college students. Adults generally had regular jobs, so these positions were easy to get during the summer. I wish you luck on finding a job and hope that this helps you.
Try not to get down you are doing the right thing try going to job agency or ask your church
Try to be up beat and smile
It's mostly the same thing for me I gave up because they told me that I should have came in during open interview to get a job. Not every McDonald's is like that but it depends on which one you go to?
Hi kristen
My name is Bryan Parker

Hey Kristen, how are you?
I know the feeling of the run around; don't get down though, there is always hope in the horizon. I suggest you apply to a different location, arrive with application in hand between the hours of 8 am and 10:30 or 2 pm to 4, dress accordingly (please no shorts, tee shirts etc,) and represent as an individual that the business needs and can count on. Always give direct eye contact and don't be afraid to ask to speak with the manager on duty; 9 times out of 10 you'll get the hiring manager. While you application is being view, tell the manager how your always on time, eager to learn and excited to become a part of the team.
it really only takes a moment to review an application; maybe this isn't the place for you, don't be afraid to apply elsewhere.... remember, Kirsten, always appear confident and sure of you no matter how you feel, the last thing you want is to appear as complaining and weak; you will be passed over in a heartbeat...
I hope you're doing well in your job search today and have not giving up on finding a job! Sometimes it is hard to find your first job but I think that you are going to have a job soon
