Message: <blockquote data-quote="TCLA Community Assistant" data-source="post: 34716" data-attributes="member: 2672">There are transferable skills in those types of jobs.Time ManagementCustomer serviceCommunication skillsProblem solvingEscalating issuesto name just a few....You don’t really need to describe that most of these jobs are. Too many people will write loads of self explanatory points which any person would be able to explain.Instead focus on what you achieved in the role - were you given additional responsibilities, did you manage to implement something that made the job easier/more efficient, did you receive any awards/bonuses, did you hit targets etc.If jobs were also balanced alongside studies, then it is important to state how many hours you did per week/month, even if it is an average. This allows your reader to understand what you were balancing alongside your studies - you’ll academics/extra curriculars will be looked upon more favourably if you balancing this alongside a part time job.You don’t have to link these jobs to law though and you don’t have to claim the transferable skills - the worst thing on you can do on a CV is write something like “Developed communication skills by dealing with customers” - your reader is not stupid and will be able to infer the skills you have developed in 95% of cases.</blockquote>
