I don't have any work experience, but I do have volunteer experience. Does anyone know where in Charlotte I can find a job? Places that hire with no experience?

Do you have any specific skills to offer?

What are you looking to do?

What is your volunteer experience in? What are your hobbies? Typically, the best places to try with no experience are fast food places - McDonald's, Burger King, etc. You might try some of the grocery stores, Dollar General, etc. With the economy the way it is now, those aren't the guaranteed jobs they used to be, but it's a good place to start.

You sound like a shoe-in for the Bank of America CEO job.

They're having a hard time filling the slot.

Well, you would've been perfect for the head of DSS or the United Way.....

I'm looking for a retail job. I have computer skills in all Microsoft programs and typing WPM 70.

all I can say is GOOD LUCK. we currently have MBA's filling those positions.

retail should not be too hard to come by , its almost black friday and they have to hire holiday staff.

If you have a hobby or interest, try to work some place that pertains to that. Your existing knowledge brings value to the employers.

I am going to take a stab, and guess that you may have already raised or are raising some kids. Don't discount this experience when applying for jobs.
