Gather Your Information

Applications ask for the same basic facts. If you gather them once and keep them in one place, every application gets faster and easier.

In this lesson

  • List the information applications ask for.
  • Keep your info in one easy place.

Info you'll need

  • Your full name, address, phone, and email.
  • Schools you went to and dates.
  • Past jobs or volunteer work, with dates.
  • Names and phone numbers for references.
  • The days and hours you can work.

Make a 'job info sheet'

Write all of this on one sheet of paper or a note on your phone. Then you can copy from it for every application. No more trying to remember.

Quick check

Try these to see what you remember. There are no grades — pick an answer to see how you did.
