Community service builds the quality of the persons character.  Employers like to hire characters.

Just because you weren't paid does not mean you have no experience. Volunteer work is work.  \n\nList it if it is relevant, if it won't raise eyebrows,  if you have been there a long time, AND you have concrete skills that you gained from the experience.  \n\nStuffing envelopes or holding banners at rally's might not something you want to list unless you are going for a receptionist / crossing guard type position.  However, if you are going for the position of bookkeeper and you sat on the board of a non-profit and helped with the budget, that could be relevant. If you have been volunteering someplace in a real capacity, list it.

I'd like to help but, i have no information and what kind of career choice your thinking of.More information please.I mean what's your calling? Have you ever thought about being a missonnary in a different country ?Salavation army or a shelter maybe, like part time?I've been thinking on your question and this one is really tough.To actually still make a well enough wage to feed your family and to want to try enough to actually find how you can help others.I think your a good person that i love to have as a next door neighbor.I think on your problem is over my head.I'm sorry and i wish you and your family all the best life can give.

Well, the best place to look is in your own community.  Ask around, does anyone know an organization or group that needs help?  Check to see if it actually counts as community service (ask for a definition if you need to) then go see how you can help.\n\nThere are also some websites, I think one is called Volunteer Net or something like that.  Google it.

No.  You need someone in a good position in the community - a doctor, teacher, or similar professional in employment.

What you mean? You're trying to find job in order to rake the civil service or you taking the civil service in order to find job. R u from the Phil.?\n If you want to employ in government offices you have to take the civil service career exam then pass in order to qualify in government  agencies. In private offices you need not to take  that exam. as long as pass all the requirement given to you.

community service hours show that you're a humanitarian - colleges are looking for well rounded people - not just bookworms or jocks.  they may have different requirements for submission and proof, but you can do it similar to a resume with the name of the charity, when you did it, what you did and the number of hours

Integrity first, service before self, excellence in all I do.\n\nSometimes seeking out the jobs noone else wants to do is the best way to get noticed.

It doesn't disqualify you completely, it just makes it harder to find something.  It is better to put something than nothing.  Put down the information you do know, it is really hard to help people find jobs if we have no idea what they have done in the past.  If you leave it blank it just shows us you don't have any work history or any experience in anything.  \n\nTry putting together a resume at home and bring it with you when you go fill out applications, at least that will help in determining what skills you have.

Networking is really about telling the truth about what you need and want.  So being available is a big thing that people should know when  wanting them to put out their radars for jobs for you. I don't think you need to bluntly let people know you are unemployed. If you simply tell people that you are looking for a new job and willing to act on an opportunity promptly, I think that should be sufficient enough.

Study hard, make good grades.  Volunteering in your community is a HUGE advantage.  Colleges are looking for outstanding people, not just good students.

It's probably a lot of b.s.  Tell me what you are interested in, I'll tell you what to do, ha!  \n\nNo - I guess job placement services can help tell you what jobs would best suit your interests.

Volunteer to help others less fortunate.  You will feel better about helping someone and may meet someone while doing something worthwhile.

You can also join Volunteer Match (online site). Great place to find volunteer opportunities in your community.

Yes because it helps people work together and to learn to work for the community they live in.
