"To be advanced"
Hello!
Please, taking a look at my sentences can you see any mistake?
- I was advanced; however I missed the bus anyway.
- We got some water in spite of the drought.
- They’ll help her out as soon as she gets abroad.
- You’ll consider me for working as a parking lot attendant as soon as I give you my curriculum vitae.
- I became an instructor after I had practiced kick-boxing.
- I assisted the old lady after she had wheeled herself around.
Thank you,
Jim

Apologies for vita - it was a typing error and should be vitae!
The old lady fell after she had wheeled h

Hi, Optilang
Thanks for all your help up till now. Sorry to insist, but is my sentence below correct? Because you put some parts into brackets so, I'm not sure if it is wrong or not.
Here it is what I wrote: "You'll consider me for working as a parking lot attendant as soon as I give you my curriculum vitae"
This was your comment with some parts into b

Hi Jim
People are considered for work, not for working, that is why I changed the sentence. The parts in brackets are 2 options for you to choose, either will be OK. So it means that there are 2 possible sentences:
either
"You'll consider me for work as a parking lot

Hi,Optilang
Now I noticed what you were trying to tell me. Thank you! But I have a last question,please. You told me that people are considered for work, not for working. I've learned that after prepositions the verbs take the "ing" form. e.g.: Thanks for coming,
after listening, etc...So in this case,is it an exceptio

In my sentence 'work' is a noun, not a verb.
