What should you put on a job application where it asks for your previous employer and you dont have one?

Answer 1

Everything in life has history and skills to report. For example, if you were a stay at home mom, than you have developed valuable gifts and skills as a homemaker and mother that could make you a valuble assest to a company; just think about it and you will can come up with way to state what you have done and how you could be of benefit in the workforce. BE POSITIVE.

Answer 2

A self-written job application provides the same information as those that ask specific questions. You can use any other application as a template. You should include the following information :

• The position you are seeking and the general requirements of the job
• Your work history and experience (more general than a résumé), including any references (which can be attached separately)
• How your job skills match the requirements of the position
• Any areas of particular interest that give you added insight, or supplement the required skills
• Other jobs, studies, or accomplishments outside the particular field
• Any special training or studies that might recommend your selection over other applicants for the position

Basically :

You are applying for the job, documenting your suitability for the job, and suggesting why you are a better choice than other applicants. Attach a separate résumé where needed, and copies of any references if solicited.

Answer 3

Usually you should leave it blank or write "N/A" or something. I know, it feels weird not putting anything at all down, but you can't just put down skills or classes you've taken or other unneeded info. You'll have time to explain all that come interview time.

Answer 4

Ever if you were not paid for the services, you can record work experience. civil, church projects, volunteer work yes you have to be fired from being a volunteer. Put down the team leader and the church or organization which you assisted. Special projects at school and the teachers name is work experience. Babysitting jobs, cutting grass, anything that alludes to someone willingness to work. Record anything that shows that you deserve a chance because you are out in the world doing something. Be creative! we do many thing in an average day that would show one character.

Answer 5

Well, if you have none then this should be the easiest part of the application! You obviously can't include what you don't have. But, you could always include other work-type activities, such as volunteer work, irregular projects you've done (i.e. helped paint a house, put in sprinklers, etc.), or even regular odd jobs. Just be sure to highlight the important transferable skills you utilized on these activities rather than simply making it a recitation of job functions.
