Well you go into any store(grocery,shoe,clothing store etc) and ask for an application. Fill it out and turn it back in. Some companies have on-line applications that you can fill out and submit. This is a great time to start filling out applications, because a lot of retail companies are hiring for seasonal help. The holiday season is upon us, so most companies like to have extra help. Seasonal positions are mostly temporary, but if your a good worker the company will keep you around. Good luck and don't get stressed, finding a job is difficult because so many people stereotype because of where you are from or your race. They are not supposed to but everyone swears their own personal taste will benefit the company. Good luck

How does TV Syndication work in the United States

How does TV Syndication work in the United States?
Could some one explain that please? For example Oprah and Dr.Phil are on syndication, what does that mean and where could you watch that programme?

When programs are syndicated it means that they basically are put up for sale by the company that makes them, rather than being purchased by a major network. Any TV station across the nation is free to buy them and show them on that particular station. There are a number of first-run syndicated shows (like Dr. Phil, etc.), but the majority of syndicated shows are old TV series that originally ran on network TV. Once their network run and contract is complete, whatever studio owns the program puts it up for syndication and pretty much any station can buy the rights to broadcast that show.

In Europe you go to Medical School right off high school if you get admitted through entrance exams. In the U.S. first you get a Bachelor's Degree, preferrably in Biology. Then you take an exam to get admitted to Medical School. It's very competitive because doctors make a lot of money in the U.S.
2 :
You first go to college for an undergraduate bachelors degree. If I'm not mistaken your major is premed. Either that or you pick a major that is medically related and you're just considered "premed". After you graduate with your bachelors degree, you go onto med school and graduate with your doctorate. It's after med school that you begin your internship and get your license and all of the fun stuff that allows you to legally practice medicine.

In the United States, Medical School is a professional degree, obtained after your undergraduate degree. At age 18, you go to college, obtaining a bachelors degree in any subject you want. To be accepted to a medical school, you need to take certain courses during your undergraduate years: Biology I and II, Chemistry I and II, Organic Chemistry I and II, Physics I and II, Calculus I, and Calculus II or Statistics I. Additionally you need to take two English courses. Certain Medical Schools may impose stricter requirements, but generally, the above courses are all that you need. You can complete any degree program you wish, as long as those above courses are done. The most typical major is Biology, but you could major in English, Economics, Political Science, Finance, or anything else you want, as long as the minimum coursework described above is done. Many students refer to the above listing of courses as Pre-Med requirements, but that is not a major, merely the list of specific courses that are the minimum to be accepted to a US Medical School. Bachelors degrees in the United States typically take four years to complete, but that can be shorter or longer depending on your particular program. Medical School is an additional four years, with the first two years spent completing coursework, and the later two years spent doing clinical rotations and obtaining hands on experience. The first year after graduation, is the beginning of your residency, which can take anywhere between two and 11 years, depending on what specialty you have chosen. To summarize, it is typically around eight years, in the United States, from high school graduation to first year intern.

No, the visa waiver program doesn't allow you to work in the US.
2 :
EU citizens need a visa to work in the US. When traveling on the Visa Waiver Program which you mentioned, you absolutely cannot work. It's only for purposes of tourism.
3 :
The visitors visa and a work visa are two very different things with the work visa being the hardest to get. You would need to get an employer to apply for you as a sponsor.
4 :
Sorry - this country prefers third world workers.
5 :
Yes you would need that as well as current passport,namely the passport would be the most important document to have
