How do you answer the question, "How many jobs have you had?" in an interview?

I had a few steady jobs… and many of day work, part times, and gig works. along with helping out my elderly neighbors, community service, and voluntary work.

my reply would be: I had a few steady jobs… and many of day work, part times, and gig works. along with helping out my elderly neighbors, community service, and voluntary work. including with yard sales, flea markets, and metal scrap recycling, plasma donating, and pawning. ( basically a blue collar worker. )

the savvy, astute, and smart interviewer will see this as a sign of initiative of you the candidate. potential hire material.

those less than this view… see this as a THREAT to their authority! along with these people labeling you as “over qualified”. i n this case, the applicant’s name is not Hiram Cheaply!!!

in the USA, an employment at will country… success on this is like the lottery.
