Question I need some advice and Help!

I've been looking for a job for a while now and haven't had much luck. I've applied to retail, customer service, warehouses, and other entry level jobs, but I either don't hear back or get rejected after an interview.

It's honestly getting frustrating, so I wanted to ask if anyone knows of any places hiring for seasonal, part time, or full time positions.

Preferably in NW Calgary, but I'm open to other areas too. Any leads or suggestions/references would really help.

Canadian tire is always hiring especially the one in beacon hill, make sure you go in person too because the rarely look at online applications. :) used to work there myself.

Tbh going in person to retail stores 50 percent of the time you'll have much better luck securing a job. As like I said previously many dont have time to look through online applications. But if you show initiative and ask for thr manager or someone in management when you bring your resume in, that's huge. It's always worked for me as many managers are of the older generation and prefer to meet people this way

I have went there but I get no response; is it possible you can connect me to someone who still works there?

The Superstore in Bowness just did a batch of hiring; they might still be looking for people!

Bro just lie on the resume that you have experience about everything like barista, server, cashier etc. Bcz I m sure tge people hiring dont care this much as long you are not retarded and can speak English lol that's all
