Apply In Person.
亲自去申请。

Applying in person is often the best mechanism for finding a part-time job. When you apply, your attire should be neat and tidy, hair and fingernails well groomed and your shoes moderate.
亲自去申请通常是找到兼职工作的最佳途径。当你去面试的时候，你的衣服要干净整洁，头发、指甲都要修剪好，要穿适合的鞋子。

What to Bring.
携带什么。

Bring the information you'll need to fill out an application, including names and addresses of previous employers, dates of employment, references, and a resume if you have one. If you're a teen, bring your working papers. Be prepared for a brief on-the-spot interview. Know when you are available to start the job and what hours you can work each week.
带好你要填写在申请表格上的信息的资料，包括前任雇主的名字，地址，任职日期，推荐书，简历（如果有的话）。如果你是一位青少年，带好你的就业证件。准备好一场大概的现场面试。要清楚你什么时候可以开始工作，以及每周可以工作多长时间。

Have References Ready.
准备好作保人名单。

Have a list of three references including name and phone number and email address ready to give to interviewers. If you don't have employment references use other people, like people you have babysat for or neighbors, who can vouch for you.
给面试者一张清单，上面列出三位可帮你担保人的名字，电话号码，邮箱。如果没有工作上的担保人，就准备其他的担保人，比如你担任临时保姆的人，或者邻居等可以为你作保的人。

Keep Track.
保持跟进。

Make a list of the companies you have applied to. After an interview, jot down the name of the person you spoke to. It's easy to forgot or get mixed up when you are applying for several jobs. This way you will be prepared if you get a follow-up phone call.
将你申请过的公司名称列成一张表格，在面试之后，将面试官的名字记下来。因为如果你参加了多份工作面试的话，很容易忘记或混淆。这样做的话，你就可以继续后续的电话跟进。

Get Help.
获得帮助。

Utilize free or inexpensive services that provide and job search assistance such as high school guidance offices, college student employment offices and career services offices, state Department of Labor offices and your local public library.
从高校求职指导办公室，大学生求职中心，或求职服务办公室，州劳工办事处或当地的公共图书管等类似的免费或便宜的途径获得求职帮助。

Use Your Network.
利用你的人际关系网。

Be aware of the fact that many, if not most, job openings aren't advertised. Tell everyone you know that you are looking for work. Ask if they can help. Just recently, I have heard about someone getting hired for a position that her dentist told her about. Someone else got an internship because he mentioned he was looking at a birthday party. While an acquaintance was offered a job over the phone by an employer his friend had given his resume to. Networking really does work!
要认识到这样的现实，即使不是大部分，也有很多的工作机会是不对外公开的。告诉你认识的每个人你在找工作。询问他们是否可以帮得上忙。最近，我听闻一个朋友得到了一个她的牙医推荐的职位。有的人得到实习机会是因为在一次生日宴会上提及自己正在找工作。而有的人因为他的朋友将自己的简历给了一位雇主而得到了工作的机会。人际关系网真的很有作用。
