Any DFW jobs?

Hey guys/girls! Do any of you know of any job openings in the DFW area? I'm looking for anything: entry-level or full-time gigs? If not, do you have any contacts or resources that have helped you get a job in this area? Any suggestions or help is appreciated!

Sorry, I did this in a panic while at work. This isn't for me...I'm trying to compile some helpful information for my unemployed friends. No one is hiring at my work, so I thought I'd come to Reddit.

Any friendly suggestions would do.

Girl...and that's the problem. They don't do anything. I know I'm killing y'all here, but they don't have much job experience. They write, have computer skills, customer service, admin experience.

Usually helps to include what you actually have skills/training in.

This was just to compile info for my unemployed friends. Most of my friends have a degree in English and have basic computer skills.

Many of my friends are stuck in the "you need experience to get a job, but you need a job to get experience" rut.

Good news!! In a couple weeks, every retail outlet in America is going to be hiring...at least for some part-time work. That could carry you at least until New Years, and it's a great way to get your foot in the door if you have no real prior experience.

Hi there, I'm one of the people the OP was trying to help find a job for. What is it you do, or rather, what would you guys be hiring for?

The Dell location in Plano (formerly Perot Systems building) hires off and on depending on need. A background in computers helps but isn't really necessary depending on the position.
