At the time I wasn&#8217;t as concerned with what I was doing, rather I was more concerned with when and for how much money. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When I started this job I realized that the job description on the application was more of a general guide. The guide told me the type of thing I might be doing but it didn&#8217;t specifically tell me what tasks I would be performing. For more reference, the warehouse I was working in had two different departments, inbound and outbound. Within those two departments there were a variety of tasks that had to be performed by employees which are assigned to you by a manger. The job description put all these different tasks under the same umbrella. So when you showed upon on the first day it was kind of a mystery as to what job function you would be preforming. I don&#8217;t have the job description available to share but it was very generalized as to what type of action you would be doing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fast forward to today where I am looking for another job, I am a lot more concerned with the job description and spend time looking through the requirements of each job to find a position that is something other than I generalized guide.  When I was looking for the warehouse job I was more concerned with finding a job that I can perform while going to college. Now that I&#8217;m about to graduate I&#8217;m looking for more specific jobs that relate to my major. I think looking at more detailed description can help me with this pursuit. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reflecting back on my last job I can see how the description wasn&#8217;t the most important thing to me because I already knew about the position and was more focused on the hourly rate of the position as well as my schedule for the job.
