I'm really new to the job scene, so I literally have no experience when it comes to applying to jobs; however I know that it's quite competitive out there and so, to the best of my ability, I try to gain as much experience as I can by volunteering etc.
Currently, I volunteer at a hospital and a charity shop, to gain some retail experience and improve my communication skills.
I have also volunteered at a local festival box office and managed to sold lots of tickets. I also have a week of work experience in a Pharmacy as Pharmacy assistant.
I'm a very hard-working person and even the manager at the Charity shop I'm currently volunteering in praises me for it and asks me if I can stay longer etc.
I recently applied to Farmfoods and I just need to send my CV- got rejected
ASDA- need to do the online assessment- got rejected and told I was not the right match to the company.
A local restaurant- just sent my CV- rejected
And two other more.
I got decent grades as well for my GCSE's 9 A-B and 1 C and A levels!!
Is this normal when you first apply to a job? Do you get a lot of rejections?
