"What happens if they cut me? What if I can not find a job in my specialty? Then I'll go to work in the subway or courier ... "- Many think. But is it so easy to find a job for unskilled work? And anyway, what can you earn money in a crisis? About this and talk. Ways at least five.
I must say that in the era of economic instability only cleaners remained calm. "Worry-worry," said each of them. - And me that! I will not stay without work - the floors will always get dirty! "And now the crisis has burst out! The hour is not even, we all have to pick up the mop and master this craft. However, there are also alternatives.
Method 1. A sandwich person
As a rule, active students go to promoters. They are cheerful and cheerful, they are ready to smile all day and happily mint a jagged text about something miraculous that either "softly melts in your mouth" or mercilessly "kills all known microbes." I decided to compete with them. So I was in the agency for hiring people on promoaktsii.
There were a lot of interested people. Basically, the slender girls of 18-20 years old, in all likelihood, are in demand type. Many were no longer the first time - they got into flocks and discussed some "their" news. Soon the girl came out in a crumpled suit with a pile of papers and yelled,
- Who is the first time, we take questionnaires and go through turns in the 202nd!
A man stretched to the office 7-8, including aunt of solid years and a lean, bright, grandfather. In the meantime, I listened to the chatter of experienced employees. Projects for which activists were recruited, there were several: conducting tasting of some chocolates; promotion of the new kitchen unit of the famous company; well and so on trifles like distribution of leaflets at the underground. For participation in any action paid for 150 - 200 rubles per hour plus bonuses for good work. It was considered good when a person bought the advertised goods. However, additional points for hourly payment are not necessarily added after the purchase. In some cases, the efficiency of the promoter's work is assessed by the number of questionnaires filled in by him or by the number of client references to the firm. The minimum work week is 2 days for 5 hours. The maximum is all 7.
In the meantime, my companion-competitors came out of the mysterious 202nd. Grandfather was upset - he was not accepted, and the woman, on the contrary, is happy - she was invited to demonstrate some new cleaner in the supermarket paying 250 rubles per hour plus bonuses for increasing sales.
"I'm calling confidence," she said proudly.
In the meantime, it was my turn. After a short conversation I was offered to work for a New Year's event: in a colorful suit to give gifts for a purchase - frames for photos, it seems. But the salary was promised only on December 31, which naturally provoked my curiosity: when I left the office, I first asked the "labor veterans" whether they were deceiving them with their wages.
- Well, how do you say ... - Julia, 20, answered me. "We did not seem to have any money at all, we did not seem to have any." Although, now this crisis ... But the efficiency bonuses are rarely paid.
CONCLUSION: This work is primarily for people who are sociable and have good health: they have to work on their feet and often on the street, despite the season and the weather. The salary of the promoter, depending on employment and bonus conditions, is 10 000 - 20 000 rubles.
Method 2. I'm standing on the floor ...
And then I remembered the metro. More truly, about the yawning grandmother in a glass booth before the escalator. This post has always seemed to me an absolute "freebie". Strange thing, but the post "station grandmother" in the list of vacancies did not appear. I had to concentrate on the ticket-teller. However, here I was waiting for a lot of testing. The fact is that getting in the right service was much more difficult than you can imagine. As dialing phone numbers there was a feeling that the subway units were not connected with each other. After spending a lot of time and getting through to the right person, I found out that most of those who live near the metro station, where there is a vacant place, are accepted for service, so that they can get to work on foot in the morning. At the nearest metro stations, there were no vacancies.
CONCLUSION: In the subway any grandmother will remember youth: social guarantees, the organization of work and cutlets in the dining room are all in the best traditions of socialism. The senior ticket clerk earns about 25,000 rubles. Just a cashier - 19 000 rubles. Vacancy involves training. The checkpoint controller (the grandmother at the turnstile with a whistle) receives monthly from 13 000 rubles.
Method 3. Courier
"Salary - from 1500 rubles a day", - so it was written in the announcement, and I decided to act. It was quite easy to get to the interview: one call, and I'm going to meet the future boss.
- Boxes are light. You need to take them to the customer and give him the sign in the statement. The customer pays for the delivery of 150 rubles, another 100 you get here when you bring us a bill. Total for each trip is 250 rubles plus fare. In day it is necessary to deliver 5-6 orders. Will this suit you?
- Probably. A schedule of what?
- Floating. We will call you as soon as you need. As orders are accumulated.
The prospect of irregular income in the current period of the crisis did not please me, and so I decided to continue my studies. Well, it turned out that the salary of a courier with full employment is 15,000 rubles. Every day, you need to come to the office of the company in the morning and wait for assignments.
CONCLUSION: Work-walking is ideal for ardent opponents of offices. Welcome the driver's license and own car - with them you can earn much more. On average, the salary of a courier in the capital is 12 000 -18 000 rubles.
Method 4. Hello, I'm listening to you
Judging by the announcements, the operators on the phone pay from 15 to 25 thousand rubles. However, a surprise was waiting for me at the interview. The operator on the phone in this office should not simply ring up potential customers on the database, but also engage in sales. For each transaction he was entitled to 500 rubles in addition to the 15-thousandth salary.
- Our company is engaged in the implementation of an information product. You have never worked with him, and this, of course, is a minus. But we are ready to give you a chance and to train. Then you will receive an internship, on which an experienced mentor will help you solve all the problems that arise.
- And how long does the training last?
- Usually 2-3 months.
- And then another internship and probation, I understand correctly?
- Yes. But do not worry. Our company pays a scholarship scholarship 8000 rubles.
That's great, is not it? It turns out that pay is collected half as much as promised in the announcement. The newcomer has to work for a scanty salary for at least six months (training, probation, probation), a percentage of the concluded transactions at this time do not pay, since you are still only a student. In addition, all this is served under a sauce of unprecedented nobility: free tuition, scholarship payment.
CONCLUSION: The operator on the phone is a work for patient philosophers. At employment it is necessary to specify precisely the duties as often it appears that the employee should not only "sit on phone", but also to advise, and to be engaged in sales. You can earn from 12,000 to 18,000 rubles a month.
Method 5: Promotion of ads
The main thing in this work is strong legs. For each pasted ad at the end of the week they pay a ruble. How much do you say you want to receive in a month? Here also estimate, how many it is necessary for you to paste announcements to receive this money. If you consider that a day can spread a maximum of 500 pieces, then we can conclude: get rich will not work. But after all, you do not need to glue ads, but diligently. And thoughtfully. It is better to do this where people spend time in anticipation. However, it is impossible to glue on bridges, in transitions and on residential buildings. So, before you conscientiously work out your money, you will have to walk a good many kilometers.
- Yes, here's another, - the manager adds, - we pay for the number of pasted ads, but this does not mean that you can mold one next to the other. Work in good faith. Try to cover as much as possible of the area, the main thing is to make calls later.
- And how do you understand how many ads I glued?
- Girl, I have been doing this for years. I always understand when the distributor is working well, and when it's a joke, "my potential employer assured me.
Guarantees that I will not throw all the pieces of paper into the nearest ballot box, my boss did not have, like me - that at the end of the week I will receive my money.
CONCLUSION: This work is for frost-resistant optimists who love walking. You can earn about 5000-6000 per month. True, there is one BUT: the employer must be honest - no contracts such labor relations, as you understand, are not regulated.
Caution, money is required!
Unskilled work is cheap. This is a fact that should be taken for granted, thinking on what you can make money in a crisis. If you promise incredible millions for cleaning offices, courier work or sticking ads, then most likely, somewhere you expect a trick. You yourself know about free cheese. Also, never agree:
♦ pay for training or goods for distribution;
♦ pay for placing the resume in a special database;
♦ buy consumables at your own expense.
If you were fired.,.
Place your resume on the maximum number of job sites, see for yourself the ads on these portals, as well as in the newspapers - and act! The option of putting it on the labor exchange can not even be considered. First of all, whatever you say, from employers, people who have been registered for unemployment, do not cause tides of unheard-of generosity in the future. Secondly, the support provided by employment services is rather questionable. Judge for yourself. To recognize the unemployed and receive benefits, you must present the relevant authorities with a passport, work record book, diploma and a certificate from the former employer about average earnings for the last three months. The allowance is calculated as a percentage of the salary indicated in it if you worked for a total of at least 26 weeks during full employment for a year. If you resigned at will or did not work for more than a year, the amount of the benefit is set in a multiple ratio to the minimum amount of the allowance. That is, you can expect an amount from 781 to 4000 rubles. The only plus of the labor exchange is that you can take refresher courses for free and work will eventually be picked up ... Just not the fact that it will suit you!
