Local, entry-level jobs? Are you hiring?
Hi everyone, I’m going on ten months unemployed and struggling to make ends meet and am looking for local part-time or full-time employment. I’ve gone down 4th and 5th Ave and to Industry City with my resume and am struggling to find any spots looking to hire—I don’t speak Spanish or Chinese which has been a barrier for a lot of spots hiring dishwashers or similar roles, understandably. I’ve applied via Craigslist and Indeed to local openings and have heard back from essentially none of them even after following up.
I’ve got a Masters in policy, am an artist, have experience as a barista and a server, am great with people, have experience in childcare, am comfortable in a retail environment or a kitchen. If anyone has word-of-mouth leads, I would be super grateful! I know this job market is insane but I’m willing to do almost anything and am fine with minimum wage. Thanks so much in advance.
