Back in the "olden days" when I first got my current job, the internet didn't exist... you know... 'cuz Al Gore hadn't been elected yet. ;-)<br /><br />I hate filling out apps of any kind... too many questions!

I did my best, but never even got a call back. Same thing happened the one and only time I applied for a waitressing job. Who knew they would be so selective? I got a job with the city instead, and they basically just asked me when I was available to work and hired me. I wish I still had that job, actually.Aunt Juiceboxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09312942310632639442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6249718236310605607.post-73367650763949844402009-10-15T00:48:22.520-05:002009-10-15T00:48:22.520-05:00There's lots of serious pyshcology behind this...There's lots of serious pyshcology behind this kind of testing, but it's probably mainly a way for companies to easily produce a shortlist. In France they do it by using handwriting analysis.<br /><br />Shops do pay people to be mystery customers, so perhaps you should contact some of the shoe retailers. You could also be one of those personal shoppers - there must be someone famous living in Chicago. Preferably a famous shoe addict.Brian o vretanoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02982178574498189251noreply@blogger.com
