Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value.

Your school may have taught you skills, such as typing or technical drawing, which you can use in your

work. You may be good at mental work or cookery and look for a job where you can improve these skills.

If you have had a part-time job on Saturday or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing

else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to get on with older

workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may

become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part-time job.

part of your background. You should not feel sorry about it but instead recognize that you will have a

chance of a fresh start at work.
