The application is asking for the exact date that I started and left a job. I don't know that information, what do I put down?
Answer
- Check your paystubs for a best estimate.
- If you received a letter of employment, look for a date.
- Call the HR department of the company/organization.
Keep a record of all the jobs you've had. Include:
- Job title
- Date you began & ended (MM/DD/YYYY)
- Reason for Leaving
- Physical address & phone number of the company
- Name & title of Supervisor
- Starting & ending wage (include if it's hourly, monthly, yearly)
- Weekly hours
- Description of duties
This is especially important if you are applying to City, County, State, or Federal jobs.
