Application form help (again)

Hello guys.

Applying for jobs today which aren't the sector in which I want to do, but alas there's not many Nursery Practitioner jobs going


Filling out an application form (I hate them but will need to get used to them now if i'm applying for roles out with my training) for a call center this morning, under employment (which I don't have much of, it's quite depressing really.)
But to fill in the gaps should I enter my work placement, which I done as part of my college course under employment?



Thanks guys

I would do so, you are selling yourself so definitely yes.

Dont leave any question unanswered, when I worked in hr i was told by my boss that because it said on the form 'complete the form in full'
that if a question went unanswered the person who was filling it in could not take a simple instruction at that time, then he didnt want to employ them.

Good luck with the job hunting.

Thanks. Im using one of my work placements as a reference, so I thought they might think who/what/why hasn't she put that in under 'employment'.

Hopefully i'll get something, even just to get past Christmas.

Oh, another thing that i've stumbled across.

'Additional information to support your application'.

I don't know. I just need a job. Hahaha.

I hate lying, this job is a temp' Christmas role. Should I just be truthful in that i'm looking for employment until I can extend my career in the sector I trained in?
How do I jazz it up?
I do have previous call center experience, how could I use that to put a spin on the above?

I got a telephone interview an hour after submitting it. Group interview tomorrow. Hurrah!
