I will have 12 direct reports that probably won't be happy that I am there since I am coming from the outside and I know they all applied for the position. I do not know the business at all but I have extensive knowledge of another field that they are in need of. So I will need their knowledge and co-operation but I am not sure how to approach this.\nThank you.

Dress like a supervisor.  People take their cues about your authority and expertise from the way you look first, then after that, the way you conduct yourself.  If you look the part, you will engender their regard from the first moment.  What you do after that depends on all of the skills that you have already accumulated to earn you this position.  In addition, it will make you FEEL like a supervisor which will help you to act like one.  Business suits are the safest bet for men or women.  If you don't have one, go to Ross or TJ Maxx and buy one.  Good luck.  You'll be great!

Play it by ear.  If you have managed a number of people in your current job, honest answers about your experience and your yardsticks for hiring and retention should do the trick.

Six?  My friend... try SIXTY applications before you expect any kind of response.  Follow-up with those applications within three business days to be sure they received it and to let them know you are interested.  Try to make 20 contacts per day... it won't take long to make a 100 contacts in your first week.  Keep the numbers strong and your quality of resumes high... you'll get the job you want.

Maybe you should put "for requirements call @ (your #)" and you could either mail them the requirements, you could tell them over the phone, or you could have them come in and maybe kill 2 birds with one stone (they will know and maybe apply and interview)....otherwise there would be too many words to put in a newspaper ad

do research on the company, read there mission statement. this will help impress them with the fact you checked out the company. if they are a company that wants to expand, tell them you are interested in expanding with them and would take any job that would enable you to learn the most about the company to further your advancement. relax and smile.

It's a GREAT idea!  Do it!\n\nSend a thank you to each person who interviewed you, including your networking contacts (if any). \n\nThank them for taking the time to consider you, interview you, and let you know the outcome.  Tell them you enjoyed meeting them and appreciated the opportunity to learn more about the company.\n\nExpress disappointment at not being hired for the position, and - gently - reiterate those of your qualifications that seemed to be of greatest interest to them.\n\nTell them how interested you are in working there, and ask them to keep you in mind for the next opening.\n\nAsk one or two (or all) of them if it would be OK if you touched base with them in 3 months (or 6 months) to see if the need for more help (you) is developing.  \n\nYou might close by saying that you know it's unusual to send a thank you after receiving a rejection letter, but you enjoyed meeting the people there, thought that it would be a great place to work, and want to be considered for future opportunities.\n\nI have seen the #2 or #3 person hired when the #1 candidate didn't work out.  It does happen!

Not all the people are placed. It is better to have some experience in the field to get a first assignment. A traineeship with a senior is also a good solution.\n\nSAP business is going well. Especially for people with at least 2 years experience.

Write corporate and tell them your experience.  Address it to the CEO.  You can look that up at Yahoo! finance - it's a public company so their names are posted.  Don't email it, send a real letter.  I even recommend printing out this page that you were so distraught that you posted your experience here.\n\nBe sure to get the names of those involved including the lovely young man who helped you.\n\nThis is unacceptable IMHO.

It's a more complex scenario than that. My friend started some years ago, shortly thereafter, I joined. Well he continued and I just let it go, due to family issues, distractions. He's making big bucks now and I'm happy for him. My fault that I quit, nobody elses. I'm re-joining next week. BTW. This friend is now my boss. Yep, he bought the company that I work for, from home. Feel free to email me for details and any other questions. Make sure you leave the name of your state and he will be happy to give you a good referral to the better leadership in your area.

I've gotten many jobs this way....call HER first, tell her you are excited about the opportunity to work and just wanted to know if she has made a decision yet....I had one employer tell me (after I had called her like 5 times) that my enthusiasm and excitement for the job got it for me even when there were more qualified people for it.

Always spin it to be positive. It helps to know your real blunt reason. Still, I can guess. Pick something that is true, but you don't need to tell them you didn't get along with someone, or that your last company mistreated you.\n\nSuggestions:\n\nLoyal for _ years and ready for a change.\n\nLeft to pursue education.\n\nFollowed opportunity for promotion.\n\nI was very comfortable. Now I want to be challenged.\n\n\n\nHope this helps.

I am a photographer of some years in the busines and could write you a seminar on this subject--but I will spare you that---suffice to say here--the best advice on this that I can give you--and advice that will serve you well is--price out the competition in your area (services in various places fluxuate wildly)---make at least three or four inquiries and get full details--then as a new service--come in somewhat under the lowest bid out in order to have a price leverage point in which to encourage new business---as your business increases with time--increase your prices to reflect the experience you have gained---------Best of Everything to You --welcome aboard the business and I might say --you have choosen a demanding field but it is packed with rewards and it is a career that has given me one dickens of a life !!!!!

Thats a great way to do it, or it would be even better if you went in to the locations and actually spoke with the managers. That is how I got my job! Going in shows you have drive, and most employers are looking for that in people!

Talk with the owners about this. \n\nSay for instance, I have noticed several of the girls have been given a promotion for Smoothie Supervisor. Is there a reason WHY I haven't? What can I do to get the next Supervisors position? What qualifications do I need in order to get a Supervisors Position?

Don't let it get you down mate.  There is what Sharon said but also if you mentioned the fact fact that you are at Uni or it was on you CV or something then it may well be that they can't see you staying there and making a 'career' out of it.  I know I know it's only stacking shelves part time for extra cash but all these places are a little job p**sed that want you to stay and put your all into their company.  Keep plugging away someone will willingly take you on especially as it's coming up to Christmas and these places generally tend to take more on.  If you want to play the game with them try adding in your CV/covering letter about your dedication to customer service and your interest in public supply/groceries etc.  This is my personal view.  Good luck.
