A. yea, thats just what kind of person they want to work there.. some druggy selling toys to kids.. i think you should work someplace where kids wont be around

Q. i'm 16..and i pretty much need a job for holiday shopping and i heard they're hiring in st. louis mo. i don't know how old you can be to work there so is it like a national thing where every toys r us is kindda the same or something?

A. I am sure that 16 with a parents written ok is fine. since they dont have any adult content there. some companies due to insurance reason wont hire until 18.check this link for employment info:

question about employment history for a 17 year old?
Q. Right now, I'm applying for a job at Toys R Us.
I'm filling out the job application as I go along and i have a question about employment history.

I have a job but it isn't an official job really.. I get paid under the table (in cash). I'm an assistant for this office and I come in whenever I'm free and file papers and miscellaneous tasks for my boss.

Can I include this in my job application or no? Would it hurt my chances of not having any previous jobs? I've done plenty of community service though.

A. Yes, you can put it down as long as the person you put as your contact with that company will vouch for you that you worked there.


Should I call an employer about the status of my application?
Q. So, I put in an application at Toys 'R' Us and I've had two interviews already. The manager told me I got the position but all they were waiting on was for my background check to clear. I'm certain it will. He said they would contatct me to schedule me for orientation either Wednesday or Thursday. Should I call them or wait for them to call me?

A. You have to be aggressive in this job market. Especially with so many people out of work. Employers have stacks of employment applications.
