Where are the jobs?

Currently living in my car. In Georgia. Had two jobs, but just quit one. Worst cast scenario — if I had to pick up and leave GA, where are all the jobs?

Amazon is hiring.

What sort of jobs do you do or have experience in?

Grocery markets specializing in coffee/candy/bulk and grocery stocking. Also, janitorial at food market and movie theaters. I do have a bachelors in Communications/Multimedia Studies: Film, TV, New Media. Haven't had luck finding a job in this field. Did an paid internship a while back.

Sounds like you might be a good fit for AMZN. They are currently hiring for their fulfillment centers in KY and OH, not far from you.

Maybe try a FedEx distribution center. The busy time of year is just about here.

WI is begging for people to come work here. The unemployment rate is just under 3%. In my area, there are billboards all over by manufacturers willing to train people or send them to school to work for them. Two problems contribute to this challenge: lack of transportation and affordable housing. The first may not be an issue for you, but the second surely will depending on where you look. If you can income qualify, certain apartment complexes reserve units for lower income people (these are not section 8). If you're willing to live in a university area among students, you may pay $500-800 for a studio apartment. Of course, if you are a committed nomad vehicle dweller, then you do not want to be here in winter!

Interesting. I'll check it out. I have family in Kentucky too. Is New Orleans a decent place to move to? I might be able to transfer to the current grocery market from GA. That's what I did from FL to get to GA.
