Has anyone joined the Peace Corps without a 4 yr. degree?

Jul 27, 2009 by algae | Posted in Community Service

I have always wanted to attach oneself to the Peace Corps, but have heard you have to have a 4 yr. degree to be accepted. I am 24, and have not attended any college, however I have 5 years of sustain working as a Montessori Teacher. So, I am wondering if there is anyone out there who has been accepted by Peace Corp, and is was/is in a similar situation as myself. Any input would be accommodating.

Why am I having such a hard time getting a retail job.?

Jul 27, 2009 by white brick home | Posted in Other - Careers & Employment

I'd like to vocation in a place that has two things: room for growth and high end clothing. I've applied to places like Saks and Intermix, they are hiring. I've been laid off for almost a year and my past two years of work experience is with childcare. I did have relevant experience when I was younger, about 5 years ago, but each position was terse term because I was young and didn't neccessarily need a job. I'm desperate to get into retail and begin building a pursuit with a company, I'm currently in school about to complete my Bachelor's in business.

But no one will hire me! Here is my resume (see below). Is there a way I can tell the future employer that although I haven't worked in retail it's where I want to be and build my career and I'm not just stating that in my open-minded because that's the job I'm applying for?
Also, would it be a bad thing to put my work history in order of relevance instead of chronologically?

Help!
