I would recommend typing up your resume and keeping several copies on hand.
Whenever you are out and about and you see a place advertising “now hiring” or
“help wanted”, take one out of the folder in your car and hand it over. you
never know who will hire you.
in this area, the malls are hiring lots of people. retail is not “ideal”, but
they are always hiring and it’s a paycheck. i did it myself for awhile before
our child was born. i just saw an ad for a company hiring people to deliver
newspapers, telephone books and those flyers you see on the stands inside of
grocery store doorways. again, it’s money coming in.
are you good with clerical work? factory work? go to your local manpower and
every other temp agency in your area and ask for work. factory work pays better
in our area, it is not dangerous. not glamorous either. get a pair of steel
toed boots, so you can go when they call to offer you a position. many factories
want you to have them. many factories also hire for all shifts (1st, 2nd &
3rd), so there is some flexibility there.
Good luck with your search,
Herlean
