What have you done before? Do you have a drivers license? CDL? Any shop experience? Inside sales?
I've done retail, driving (non-cdl, as I don't have a CDL), direct support specialist (mental health field). My main area of expertise is in sw dev, but I don't have the luxury of waiting for a team's hiring process.
My brother-in-law, who lives in Portland, said the other day that Intel is hiring factory workers like crazy.
I've considered this. I was close to singing papers for the 1.5 hour-long commute for a night shift at an Intel plant (which I was not excited about). That in addition to the fact that every facet of the job worked against my natural abilities (detail-oriented, fine motor skills, repetitive work, loud, noisy environments) was the final nail in the coffin. Opted for a pizza delivery job that I found at the same time.
Car dealerships are always hiring, and you don't have to be in sales. Check the parts or service departments.
Maybe, but isn't it commission based? Like doesn't that mean that if I don't make a sale I don't get paid?
Parts and service work differently. There are hourly gigs.
Ah, good thought. I can imagine my ADHD wreaking havoc on me at the job, but I suppose a paycheck's a paycheck.
ADHD might actually be a benefit in the parts department. :)
