Hi recently got an application form for Audi and it says employment experience, now I have experience. I have worked on cars and helped selling cars with my dad. Worked with A1 auto centre for a day doing pictures. I helped build my dads cafe and run it with him but I have never officially been employed so how can I go about putting it down on the form or can I not do that and just hope I get an interview and am asked?

write it down, a few well written words in the space will tick a box an empty box will probably mean no interview.

Cheers, on a second thought what about attaching apiece of paper titled experience to the form?? and would helping out with car shows count?

Sounds like you were doing some freelance marketing assistance
Could I sign it off as charity work? As I did give away photo sessions as a charity raffle prize.
