Due to husbands ill health (he is self employed and has had to drop a few clients) Im considering applying for a couple of jobs to help boost our family income.
I've been a stay at home/homeschooling mum for the last 8 years. Prior to that I ran my own catering business. Ive taken on a few jobs during this time, but totally on my own terms, and more for fun or because it was an interesting project, rather than for the money.
A few waiting on jobs are being advertised locally and I would like to apply. I dont want a managerial position, Im more than happy to serve tables and wash pots :)
Im looking for advice really on how to put myself across as a possible good candiate, without coming across as over experienced. Also, If successful in my application's I dont want to become an 'accidental' manager/supervisor because of my experience (been there, done that!)
Basically, how do I sell myself without bigging myself up too much?
