I'm looking at every job website I can find, but the best way to find a job is to know someone.

Here is what im looking for.
Part-Time in the afternoons.
Im bilingual, Spanish - English.
Im studying International Relations so maybe something in a Law Firm or something.

Let me know.

Someone's never been on the receiving end of TWW favors.

It's not like he's asking for a big thing. This is more on the scale of 'oh, wasn't there some kid who spoke spanish who was looking for a job? lemme PM him this posting I just found', rather than 'Oh, let me give this TWWer a political internship in DC'

PS: dbhawley - I have seen LOTS And LOTS of job postings requesting spanish speakers...You're not looking very hard, or looking in ALL the wrong places.

Point mostly being the man could have been a little gracious or humble in his post rather than coming off like a lazy retard that is just trolling job websites waiting for something to fall in his lap. It disturbs me even more that he indicates his career direction is in international relations, as in effective communication.

suggestions for a closer that would have gone over much better:
"If you have any ideas or suggestions can you help set me on the right track"
"Does anybody know of any opportunities that sounds like a fit for me?"
etc


not "Let me know".

fact of the matter is pretty much every decent part time job is not hiring...jan/feb are traditionally the worst hiring months for part time jobs anyways, and with this economy its even worse...everyone and their mama wants a job now a days

Let me rephrase my post.

I have been out of the country for the past several years on a volunteer relief work trip. I have just returned to Raleigh, and I am in great need for a job. I realize the economy sucks right now and there aren't much jobs out there. Im not sure of the best way to find a job. I am fluent in spanish and I am a people person. Do you have any ideas or suggestions can you help set me on the right track? What are the best places to look for this type of employment? Does anybody know of any opportunities that sounds like a fit for me?

Thanks for any help you can offer me.

BOOM, HEADSHOT!

And yeah, that should get you started. I saw a number of listings on there for varying office assistant type jobs. Not sure about the afternoon part time part, but I'm willing to bet you'll find a few like this: http://raleigh.craigslist.org/ofc/968069896.html

Just keep your eyes out.

Have you checked with staffing agencies in the area? there is usally a pretty high demand for someone that is bilingual, and they have a hard time filling those positions.

^^^^ To be fair, not all staffing agencies are created equal. A lot of them are absolute shit. I don't think it's that bad to ask if anyone knows a good staffing agency.
