Need Help Finding ANY Job in Vancouver Area

Hello everyone!

I’m 26 years old and moved to Vancouver 5 months ago. I have a part time job that does not come close to paying the bills, and aside from that, I haven’t been able to find any other job. I apply to jobs every day, mostly on Indeed and by looking on BC Arts Alliance board or looking up companies and sending cover letters and resumes. I often go out in person as well, but have had no luck on that front either.

I don’t have post secondary experience, but have 10+ years of customer service experience, including 4 years working at Indigo and 2.5 years working at a law firm as an admin assistant, and front desk receptionist. I’ve served and bartended. Also, my current part time job involves childcare and teaching art classes to children.

All in all, I’m a personable and efficient, task oriented person, and all the people in my circle have reviewed my resume and said it looks quite good.

I also have a background in film, acting, and music.

At this point, I’d take literally any type of job - restaurant, department store, grocery store, nannying, part time, full time, anything. I’ve considered doing Skip the Dishes but I’m not sure if that’ll make money or not.

Does anybody know of any leads? All I need is to find any job to be able to pay rent or I’m gonna have to think about leaving Vancouver. It’s also worth mentioning that I have a car and am willing to travel for work.

Thank you so much.
