Can't find a job

Idk what else to do. I've gone through temp agencies but the hours conflict with school hours. I can't pass the assessments for these jobs on my own and I'm starting to doubt my abilities. I'm already homeless and in my car with my child and it's getting grim. Idk what else to do. I need a job to see my worth and offer me a position. I'm desperate

What are you looking for currently? I’m following a lot of wfh pages on Facebook and a lot of them are getting back to people in a few days with no assessments. I’ve seen people work from public libraries or apartment clubhouses using their laptops and computers.

Go to the GDOL website & see the jobs they have. They have plenty of jobs & job fair dates on the website. If you need money like BAD apply for EDS OR ABM at the airport as a driver. They hire pretty quick. I just seen someone make a post saying Amazon & Fed ex Is hiring now too.

I am a bus driver and bring my daughter with me. It’s not as hard or intimidating as it seems.

Have you considered a nontraditional job? I can talk to you more about it but I'd need to get to know you before I refer just to see if it would he a good fit

I completely understand I have been looking for a wfh job forever! Been rejected every time

Right now I'm staying afloat with Amazon Flex, Doordash, Ubereats, etc. I've tried Target and many others and I've been rejected even though my background is mostly retail and customer service. I'd like to do wfh as an independent contractor so I can still get to my babygirl. I'll even accept warehouse jobs because I know how to drive a stand up forklift. I just need a YES!

@Victoria she's currently in a GA pre-k program. I just need something that compliments her school hours until I can save to pay a sitter for better jobs with different hours.

@Danika is this a Facebook group?

Ya, it is. They post a lot of stuff.

@Moriah Also what does your resume look like? I could help fix it up. Msg me

@Danika I think k my resume could use some work. I've let a few people look at it and I've gotten mixed reviews on it. I'll send you a PM, shortly. I'm at the library

There are usually child care assistance, check your county. That was you can have child care while you work. The bus will usually drop the child off at the provider as long as it’s in the school district. That might help with the school schedule

@Amy I'm applying for CAPS to cover that but it's a process. I've been denied 5 times already. Hopefully, I can get some help this time around

@Moriah I hope so!! Sorry you are going through this!

@Amy thank you. I'm not the only one struggling. I wish jobs would actually hire folks when they say they need someone
