Our University puts out a job listings online and anyways, Fedex is hiring some people to unload/load packages from trucks and it says to just apply in person. I was wondering if I need to be dressed decently or if I'm expected to bring anything like a resume (the listing just says apply in person).

Here's the actual listing if it helps:
"Part-time package handlers load or unload delivery vehicles. We offer starting pay of $8.50-$9.50/hr, tuition assistance after 30 days and a $.50/hr raise after 90 days. Work 2:30 am-7:30- am or 5 pm-10 pm. You must be at least 18 years old, have reliable transportation and be able to lift 50 lb boxes. Apply in person M-F 9am-4 pm."

I'd wear khaki's and a golf shirt, I would bring a resume with work experience. They probably aren't looking for anything specific, but at least to know that you know how to work under someone.

Sounds about right to me. I doubt this requires a lot of supervision, they just want to see that you know how to follow directions.

I guess I should clarify that this is Fedex, not the university hiring. As a matter of fact, it's like an hour bus ride + 20 minutes of walking from the University. I used to work on campus doing programming work for $7.00/hour "full" time (30 hrs/wk) so don't worry, we get paid pretty poorly too.
