Back in my past, I used to work on a phone line as a Tarot reader, it was a really intresting job, and for somebody who was telephone shy like my self a vaulable learning experiacne.

However, appling for a serious office job having Tarot Reader half way down the first page isn't going to win you any offers, so chaning it to Person Prospects consultant/adviser, while still explaining in smaller type what exactly I did and how it helped me worked a treat.

Also I used to construct cardboard displays for promotions in shops, so I became a retail communications techniction.

Don't lie about experiance, just try and make it a bit more intresting
