New barista seeks first job: Highlight recent experience, focus on customer service.

The user has limited experience (senior living food service) and is seeking their first barista job. Their current job, though less than a week old, provides 'basic barista experience' which should definitely be added to their skills section. This is an opportunity to break into a desired field. They should emphasize transferable skills from food service like customer service, handling transactions, and fast-paced environment experience. Honesty about qualifications (GED vs. high school diploma) is generally recommended, as lying can lead to future complications. Focusing on well-written applications and expressing genuine enthusiasm for the barista role will be key.
