throughaphaseToday the class was in the Danger Shop, which looked a lot like the waiting room to an office. Kitty was there, dressed in a business suit and looked nice and professional, which was a little weird for her when she'd first showed up in Fandom with leather pants regularly in her wardrobe.
"Last week we talked about finding a job, and today we're going to work on the first step," she began. "You're going to have an interview, and you're even going to have to look the part. Now, there's this old saying about dressing for the job you want, not the one you have. So you're never going to want to go in in jeans and a t-shirt, though you also don't have to get super dressed up if you're looking for a retail job. Try to make yourself look presentable, like you're put together and responsible. You're going to figure out what kind of job you want to say you're interviewing for, and then use your best judgment as to how you look.
"And then you're going to sit down for an interview with me," Kitty went on. "Normally you're going to want to show up fifteen minutes early to fill out paperwork, and don't be late. If you can't help but be late, call and tell them or see if you can reschedule. If you have a copy of a resume, bring it, along with two forms of ID. Last week I handed out job applications, which they'd make you fill out here. Interviewing is a lot of paperwork, sorry. They want to know about your experience and schooling and people who can vouch for you, which by the way, you can always use me for. And then once that's done, they'll bring you in to talk about yourself. So, go get ready, and then I'll call you in."
