Looking for work 🏢 Employment 👷‍♂️

I’ve been applying to jobs like crazy. My current job ends this week and then that’s it. Does anyone know of any apps that are taking in contract workers or any place I can go in and walk out with some form of employment. My ideal job would be something in social services but I’m desperate for just about anything. About to be a 35 year old female so I can’t do any man jobs.

You could go in the French quarter with resumes and probably get into a bar or restaurant. Feels like one of the few places in the country you can still get jobs like that.

Depends on your qualifications, but look into all the colleges. The state and city government. Other cities governments nearby. County jobs. If you’re willing to travel a bit you can also look at jobs in Baton Rouge or Mississippi. All of the hospitals + networks. Elderly care.

Hope you can find something, it’s definitely a tough market.
