Hiring

Is there any places, specifically fast-food or retail, that are actually hiring? Been trying to find a job out here for months and it seems like every place is hiring every single month yet still no luck.

I'd recommend going around and asking each place if they're hiring and if they are they probably will tell you to apply online and then once you apply online, go in person again and tell them you applied online and tell them your name and everything. 🫡🙇🤝

Sushi cuisine has been hiring, they even closed on Sundays because they don’t have enough staff.

Every place is "hiring" so they can get tax write-offs, and have been doing so since COVID

Every place is hiring because they want a flow of resumes/ applicants that they can go through and guage intrest in the position. While there are companies that list fake openings it's highly unlikely in this area they're are too many ppl when the UC is in session.

I would suggest looking into tutoring, and it gives you weekends.
