Do you have any stories about dropping off resumes? One time I went to drop off a resume at Lacoste. There was a woman in her 20s there. I said: "Excuse me, I'm here to drop off a resume".
She just took it out of my hand and left it besides the cash register. She didn't even say thank you or anything. NOT a word!
I applied for a book store at a local college (I was still in high school by the way.) and the dude who runs it asked for an interview. So I skipped school that day to go and when I got there the man asked for my resume and said "Thank you." That was it and he never called me back.
My friend worked at a popular British stationary chain who employ through online applications so whenever people used to bring their CVs in, he and his colleagues just used to laugh at their spelling/grammar mistakes and then bin them
