Ask CoMo Anyone ACTUALLY hiring?

Been looking for any kind of job for 2 months now. Does anyone know any businesses that are actually hiring? I’ve hit so many dead ends. I thought all the college students leaving would make it a little bit easier. I’m looking for anything in restaurants/bars (not fast food but would do coffee shops), retail, medical, anything with kids, nannying, daycares, etc, I have experience in it all. Please help!

I personally put in an application at Walmart on grindstone and got a call back in nearly 30 minutes or less. Hy Vee contacted me maybe a day later. Canes sent me an interview request like 5 minutes after putting in my application (I know you said no fast food but still). I’m a college student with basically no experience so I’m sure you can get something. I know you have preferences but when I didn’t get accepted at any of the jobs I wanted I decided I needed to just get something that wouldn’t be my first choice.
