What's the best way to convince a friend to work for me?

Present your friend with your pitch. Explain what's in it for him, for you and the company. Highlight some key benefits of you collaborating with him. Make clear why you would entrust him better than anyone else and also talk about a fall back plan in case of rocky situations at work.

Go into shops, restaurants, stores etc ( if you're right on their doorstep looking keen...its harder for them to say no)\n\nAsk friends and family.\n\nLook in the local papers.\n\nLook on recruitment websites.

Generally employers do not want to hear about what you want to do in the future but what you can do for them right now.  Your friend needs to reign himself in.  It's great he wants to be president someday but how is that relevent to the person who's supposed to hire him?\n\nHe's much better off staying away from his life ambitions and discussing directly what he can do for the campaign, how hard he will work and the rewards he will feel by working on said campaign.\n\nAlso, I don't recommend ever saying you'll postpone school for someone else.  That sounds more desparate than earnest.  Rather, remember it's no one's business what you do with your own time.  It's only important for your prospective employer to know that you will be dedicated and not let anything get in the way of your work.  How you manage that isn't important to them, nor should you just offer information like that.\n\nThink of a cover letter and a resume as trying to get a date.  You want the person you're interested in to be intrigued but you don't want to show em everything you've got.  Let them want to ask you questions and keep them interested.

I would start by determining what I wanted to persuade someone about.\n\nThe obvious choices would be:\n\n1) that working in America is too stressful, which could be supported by evidence of work injuries, psychological standards, and other signs of stress that are researched.\n\n2) that working in America isn't as stressful as in other areas of the world which could be supported with prouctivity requirements from other countries and cultures, expected salaries, weekly work hours, and the like.\n\nOnce you've determined what you want to persuade someone of, you need to find proof to back up your statements. Use a 5 paragraph basic layout and you should be good to go.\n\nI'm an English major, so if you would like me to look over or help you out, feel free to email me (to make sure I notice) at iltat@yahoo.com :)

Be honest, be friendly, make eye contact and let them know that you are a hard worker (if you are, if you aren't then resolve to be a hard worker).\n\nHave an idea what your goals are for the near term and longer term.  Employers want ambitious employees.\n\nGood luck!

You can contact an employment agency and hire a couple of people.\n\nYou tell them how many you want, and what you are willing to pay, they will try to find people.  It could be expensive (if the agency is paying the people $6.00 an hour, for example, they will charge you $12.00 to $18.00).\n\nYou may be better off to get your kids (if you have teens) and their friends do it.  Pay them $5.00 an hour PLUS pizza or burgers.

First of all; STOP that "on-call" crap.  Your work and time is WORTH money.\n\nTo start out, I would take the minimum wage in your state and then charge 1 1/2 times that.\n\nAs for things they get in the mail, day to day...you could go in for an hour or two, every other day.... or it can WAIT until your reg. time to be there.  DON'T spoil these people, especially if they are friends.. ( There's your first mistake...working for friends for below what the work is worth.)

You gently remind them. If they make an excuse to not pay you then and there, get them to commit to a date (I'll have it all for you next Friday) or a payment plan (I'll pay you $10 every Monday). \n\nIf your 'friend' still evadess his/her responsibility, just banish this person from your life. $100 or so is CHEAP to get a person like this out of your life forever and ever.\n\nNext time you loan a friend money, get something for collateral. That way, if there is some reason your friend can't pay you back, you can sell the item and get your money that way. So no matter what happens, the two of you can still be friends. If your friend both intends to repay you and values your friendship, your friend will readily see the wisom of this plan.\n\nWhen you loan money to a friend without getting collateral, you often lose both your money and your friend.

Just be positive, and know you can do this. People are always looking for someone that want to be at work and help the company grow and make profit. Just let them think that you will be a positive aspect for them. Always act upbeat, and know what you are doing.

If you are in the US it is illegal to refuse to hire someone based on age.\n\nYour friend needs to just go out and try. Any company in compliance with the law should be fine. If she is denied due to age, turn them over to the Equal Opportunity Commission nearest to you.

Lot's of experiences like that one... well, one thing that would really help your friend is to constantly praise his/her work. commend everything that was done right. if there are things that must be corrected, do it in a constructive way, and a suggestion will do. In this way, you are building up confidence without making your friend dependent on your opinions or praises. Remember, it's just a balance of praises and constructive criticisms. In the end, your friend will learn how to judge things about her all by herself. Best of all, SMILE! Your smile could actually mean everything.

Go to an electronics store during regular business hours and ask to speak to the general manager. Run your well prepared idea across them and see what happens. It will either be yes or no. Keep going until you hit an interested party as not all will be receptive to your proposal. But one is all you need and eventually you will hit paydirt. The only way to fail is to give up! And those who are not receptive one day may be in the mood on another day.

Word of mouth is always the best business.  Always ask for referrals from anyone you do business with and ask for referral from someone who says no.  "I was unable to help you, do you know of someone who might need my services"?\n\nBest of luck to you.
