Job in the South Bay.

I know there are a lot of posts/threads about people looking for jobs, but I figured I would never know unless I gave it a shot.

So I am trying to make my triumphant return to the bay area. The only hurdle to that is that I need to get a job. I have been hunting for a while now. Does anyone know of anything that is available? My plan is to get a job and start taking classes at Wyotech or maybe De Anza/West Valley in the fall.

I am willing to do any kind of work. I have a good Driving record and reliable transportation (yes The PedoVan is reliable). Those of you who know me know I am a good guy and commit 110% to what ever I do.

Any thoughts/comments/suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

-Jourdan

I saw their Craigslist Post... I applied Last week, they offered me an interview then next day but I wasn't available to make it. I offered them some other times that I would be available. Still no reply.

I am pretty proficient when it comes to computers and networking. I have yet to work on any servers.



Thank you for all of your help.

I used to work at the Boardwalk, so I have them as a superduper backup. The only downer with them is that I wouldn't get many hours in the Fall and Winter.

Negative, I am only 20, I have taken some classes at Chico State. I am planning to take more classes once I'm back in the bay area.

Starbucks is always an option. Fairly easy work.

Benefits w/ 20 hrs/week.

Just make sure to find a store with decent tips.

With most stores offering shifts from 430am-9pm.... You'll be sure to find some hours to work around school.

If I were you, I'd take that boardwalk job to get yourself down here. Summer is coming so that means alot of students are going to be trying to pick up summer jobs. They are already reporting on the news that most students are going to have a tougher time trying to find summer work.

Jourdan, I work for Hurricane Electric and I'm pretty sure we're hiring. Thing is, we're in Fremont, so that's not quite the South Bay. I can forward you the job advertisement we have up at work, and/or you can send me a resume. The position we'd be hiring for is Support Engineer.
