Yes, you should still apply.  Who told you that being trained in communication wouldn't contribute to your success as an account executive?  Are you serious?  People with degrees other than in banking won't get the priority that persons with the right degree have if they're looking for a person with a certain degree, but it doesn't mean you can't get the job anyway.  Generally, companies will take applicants with other degrees that relate in some way or other.\n\nThere are two important keys to getting hired anywhere over others.  1. Becoming friendly with people who already work at the place you want to work at and 2. getting and acing the interview.  \n\nBecoming friendly with people who already work there gives you a foot in the door because bosses want people who not only do great work but also get along.  It's always a great idea to become friends with people who do great work at the place you want to work at because if you can get a recommendation from them, the boss will give you preference based on the theory that "birds of a feather, flock together".  Plus you apparently get along with them which is also important.\n\nAs far as the interview, try to find out who will be doing the interview and what they look for and prefer in an applicant.  Learn what you can about the interviewer so you know better how to conduct yourself and what to say and especially not say.\n\nBy the way, pick your friends carefully.  Picking the wrong ones could backfire. :-]\n\nGood luck!

I believe they expect an honest answer. You need to tailor your answer to fit the job, and do research on the company before you go to any interviews, and way before any of those unexpected phone interviews. For example, if you applied for an entry level administrative position, you might answer " I want to become a part of a dynamic team like ABC company, and I expect to have the chance to  learn and grow with the corporation as I advance in my career". Now, keep in mind that there may not be opportunity for advancement, or that an administrative assistant may be a "dead end" job, so I cannot stress the fact that you should tailor your answer to your advantage. Basically, you want to tell them why you think their company is part of your career choice. It is an important question because it will give insight as to whether you will stay there or not.

It depends on what kind of advertising job you want to do. \n\nMarketing and Business are great for account management, and couldn't hurt if you wanted to go into strategy/account planning. Communications are also good, and so is Psychology, Sociology and Anthropology (the social sciences). Advertising is one of the few industries in which a Liberal Arts background is considered a plus--especially if you have developed great writing and critical skills. Some schools do offer an Advertising major, but I'd back it up with a minor in marketing/business, mathematics, finance or something that shows that you have depth to offer. \n\nAlso remember that pharmaceutical advertising is huge--if your education reflects a familiarity with medical terminology and issues, that will be a huge asset--likewise, financial advertising would be helped with a background where you're fluent in finance lingo and so on....\n \nIf you want to go into the Creative side, obviously you should major in whatever will generate the strongest portfolio for you. Also try to get as many internships as possible while you're in school--experience is essential, and often can lead into a job right after graduation.\n\nGood luck!

Yes ... you can! You would need to contact them and you might need to fill out paperwork concerning your work address...they should have given you a number to call.

Definitely include a letter, even if it's just to say who you are and why you want to participate. Also update your CV and make sure it notes everything that is relevant to the job (or program, education).

looking at the job description, you should be able to figure out whether if the position is a receptionist position or not.  if so, then don't bother applying.  typically, such EA/AA positions at smaller companies will require multiple functions, including answering phones, that are not on the original job description.  This can be avoided by working for a big company although there are no guarantees that it won't happen.  To answer your question, you never want to say during an interview that you don't want to do "something" even if it may be required every now and then... good luck.

Communications is primarily used to enter into the the mass communications and marketing industries.  \n\nThe "generic" jobs using this are radio, television and public relations. \n\nHowever, this is not to say that this is your only avenue.  There are literally billions of jobs out there and somebody does each and every one of them.  It may surprise you, but not everyone "does" their major for a living - especially for liberal arts majors like communications.  But the key is to do what you enjoy, not be blindsided by ignorance and take pride in building your own life. \n\nA good way to know what is out there is to get informational interview. Ask people what they do, what their typical work day is like, what they like and dislike about their jobs and how they got the job.  I went through dozens of informational interviews before I got my first job so that I went in with my eyes wide open.  As opposed to job interviews, people are usually flattered and very open to talking to college students when asked for an informational interview.  Just ask for 30 minutes and it will return volumes in experience.

You could bring out any customer relations experience you recieved in your old job.  If you did any working with customers, distributers, or outside contractors.  If you recieved any "awards" for being a good employee.  Be sure to not hide your references and make sure that your references will speak for your personality.\n\nAlso, don't be afraid to hide what you did before.  But, as you have metioned, you do want to relate your previous work to the new job if at all possible.\n\nFinally, if you have a community college in your area... many community colleges have what is known as a "Carrer Center".  These are typically open to the public by apointment.  Try calling a college near you to see if they offer this type of service.

I dont think so really, you could ask your local council about what training courses they offer. They may run cheap adult education classes in the evenings that can train you to be a class room assistant. You could try that first and see whether you seriously want to dot hat job without commiting to unicersity.

If you are just starting out I recommend you get an internship or entry level job at a PR agency.  That way you can get to know the business.  As you start to climb the latter there are a few ways you can go career-wise:\n\n1. Climb agency latter -- must be good at both public relations and bringing in new business, which is what you get responsible for as you get more senior\n\n2. Go in house -- you generally get paid more if you work for a company doing PR for them but its usually not as exciting or dynamic as working at a PR agency where you usually work on several accounts\n\n3.  Freelance -- many people freelance their PR services by the hour.  This is unreliable work at time but clearly very flexible which appeals to many people.\n\nIf you are very interested in a career in public relations I would recommend you get a subscription to PR Week.\n\nGood luck

Accounts & Tutions will be good. You have to try for the same.  You can try with auditors for accounts and go through news papers for tutions.

It's very wide open for you.  Best to combine your degree with an interest or other certification or experience.  For example, if you want to do PR, consider an internship somewhere.\nTeacher\nJournalist\nPublic Relations\nBroadcast Journalism \nRadio DJ\nWriter\nReporter\nMarketing\nSales\nCommunications (interpersonal or technical)\nBusiness or Reseach Analyst\n...and lots more.  If you go to a job board like hotjobs or monster and type "communications", you'll get an idea of what potentially is out there.

It doesn't seem like you are qualified for any particular position.  You have been bouncing between completely different fields.  There are a lot of gaps on your resume (where were you from 1998 to 2000-no job listed for that time), you don't have any real education (undergraduate degree), the sentences are completely grammar inaccurate.  From what time to what time were you in school, did you graduate? with what degree? If you are applying for a waitress or the kitchen to was dishes or something-they don't need resumes there.  Otherwise I would advise you to change your resume.
