Help Wanted: Placer SPCA, Jack's Urban Eats, RC Willey Home Furnishings, More

“Scratch a dog and you’ll find a permanent job,” said Franklin P. Jones. This week the Placer SPCA has a few openings within its public awareness area. REI also many openings within its store to get those ready for the snow season. In addition, Jack’s Urban Eats will be filling its serving staff to help those Jack's fans and many other local opportunities.   

Job Tip of the Week: Did you just say that? So things are going great during the interview, you feel as if you aced the other questions so far and ready to finalize the deal ... and then all of sudden the interviewer out the blue asks an off-the-wall question: “So if you were stuck on a deserted island, who would you pick to stay with you?” Sometimes this may happen and it’s not really a bad thing. Employers want to see if you get rattled, test your creativity and most of all, see how well you handle challenge. If you can turn your answer into something job related, excellent.

Good luck all job seekers!
