can i apply for a job at a gym .......
like it doesn't sound like u need to be a gym rat or anything like that, just that u have some sort of interest in it (which i guess i do, i wanna start but don't have the time !!!! but if i start this job i will defo start) and the work tasks are more idk keeping up w realtionships of the customers, some maintenance in the gym/equipment and administrative shit. and i really wanna work with administration ...

i mean it doesn't hurt to apply ofc but i rly want to get away from my current job so idk how to make it sound absolutely splendid in my application without lying dkjgdfglf.
i'm not gonna get it either way cuz more qualified ppl will defo apply but still :--(

why not!! just say that you're looking for different kinda responsibilities/tasks in your work and express interest in the areas that made you want to apply in the first place. no need to bash your current place of work, i'd probably try to avoid any unnecessary negative undertones bc you don't want to seem like you're only applying to get out of your current situation

o mood honestly its one of the most aggravating true things people will tell u about finding jobs is like ... u gotta apply for jobs ur unqualified for. everyone does. if u meet every single "requirement" thats in a job listing u are OVERQUALIFIED ! & yea im saying this as a person whose anxiety will stop them frm applying for jobs im "underqualified" for bc it seems silly n makes no sense but like.... normal successful employed people have all told me thats how it works lol

this is a part time job, like an extra job, and there's a question of why i'd want an extra job. i'll write that i'd love to pick up on my studies (which is ultra true) and therefore an extra job is very fitting, but that i'd gladly take as many shifts available and so on, and that i'd like to idk evolve in my role in this company as well? i'll work on the wording tho to make it sound A+

yeah like honestly i will probably never find a job i'm 100% qualified for. idek if i was 100% qualified for the one i have now, can't remember. but it's a shit job, so i doubt there were any BIG qualifications. 
but yes u should apply even if ur not qualified cuz it's something, right?? i mean don't apply for some big shot engineering position if ur not an educated engineer, but otherwise go for it cuz how else are u supposed to get a job, right??? but it sucks ass i know, it feels fucking pointless to apply when u know a million others are gonna apply and they're gonna b more qualified lmfao

i've never actually applied for jobs myself because i'm not able to work for health reasons but i wish i will at some point and it's honestly comforting to hear that it's not like........ required to check out every box to apply. i'd be happy to get pretty much any work experience tbh to not just have a completely blank cv

something i learned b4 i got this job is that u can pull things out of ur ass to put on ur cv lol. my cv is not something to cheer for but like some bullshit economy course i took for a day once? add that shit. or some motivational course? add that too. just add whatever that sort of makes sense to add
and whenever u get some type of experience that u add on ur cv, maybe drop some of the things u added before you had any other experience. idk cv's are a whole jungle, ngl. everything depends on WHO's reading it too, you never know that. one person might look at one thing and another person looks at something completely different, and they care about different things and whatnot

this is a short application cuz they don't demand personal letter, just cv and short answers to questions they ask and then what motivates me to apply to this job. does this sound good?

"I long for an environmental change with new tasks and responsibilities. I also long to evolve, both as a person and in my work role and I'm currently looking for a new place to do this at, and this feels possible at your work place. To work extra would suit me very well right now since I'm planning on studying, educating myself in something administative, and eventually be able to work myself up in this company and be here for the long haul."

i mean the translation is shiz but u get the point

i literally don't have a cv because i haven't finished any studies or even taken any courses or anything. the only thing resembling paid work was being in some program at like 15 where the city paid a nominal amount for young people with some health issues etc to have something to do basically and i was in a pottery studio for a couple months. and like i had some babysitting jobs as a teenager but that'd just feel embarrassing to put in because it wasn't even through any official channel. i hope i can come up with something..... or study something that kinda naturally leads into starting a career without former experience in the field

i think it sounds fine, short and sweet 
i'd do some minor tweaking with the repetitive wording etc, but the contents of the answer seems pretty well put imo.

add those things to ur cv !! honestly if you don't have anything else, it's mostly better to add whatever you have. and i can recommend fast food chains, or similar jobs that are common among young people cuz they're not rly that focused on ur cv or ur previous experiences, but working there is a good experience cuz it shows that u handle stress well and all that, it'll also give u experience in customer service and most likely like cashier experience. u don't need to work full time either so u can do studies on the side if u want that. and there's like official professional baby sitting agencies and since you have experience, that seems like a good option. if you can get a good word from either of the families you babysat for, that's great, but probably not something you absolutely NEED all the time.
BUT studies are ofc always great !!
