    any experience can be brought into any job role!

    can't really help without knowing more details about your volunteering/exact experiences though

    what type of volunteering did you do?


    retail mainly want to see that you're a people person really and you need to demonstrate that; exaggerate on your voluntary/fast food job responsibilities A LOT
    for example if you just made burgers in the fast food place, say you helped cover the till when short staffed/covered shifts/helped customers/done campaigns

    if you have no experience whatsoever then just talk about what you could do in the job

    just talk about the skills from your other roles

    cover letters are easy they dont need to be very long at all
