On your resume, if you take a temp job (2 weeks) for few hours, do you put that down on your resume?


Just wondering.... to see if I should re-do my resume. And my interview has nothing to do with the temp job...

My interview is at a dentist office for customer service... and my temp job was in the mall selling puzzles.

If the job was with an agency you put the agency down, not the puzzle company. Put down the entire time period you worked for the agency, and describe it as "contractual marketing". And you are wrong about them being related! Customer service is marketing too, you have to market to keep clients and to obtain new ones. Turn this into a positive during the interview...you gained experience talking with people from a variety of back grounds, you learned to overcome objection, blah blah blah....

Good luck with the interview!

Only if you learned a new and useful skill that can be viewed as beneficial to your future jobs

Absolutly not it will be a negative record.

It depends. If you need filler then go ahead a put it down, if you can justify why it was so short term. Also if you have any good expereicences or knowledge gained from the position that you could talk about. I think there is a big corrilation between cold sales in a mall and customer service. If you were successful there then it show people skills and patience. You should try to have at minimum 2 jobs listed if not 3-4. But I wouldn't go back further than 4. Best of luck!

I wouldn't, Two weeks at a job counts for nothing. Well, almost nothing. Only if you can prove that you learned something useful in those two weeks
