6. Have you seen any male HHA in NYC?

   flod replied to flod's topic in New York

   Yeah I think I would prefer the security job. For some reason though I never got a call back when I applied to security jobs in my area. I heard that a lot of them are ex-military people. So I guess all the ex-military people gets the job? Or maybe i...

   My goal is to have a job that consists of mostly free time where I can do personal research by reading books and using the internet, and eventually making my living through blog/website online. Maybe I could become a overnight security guard? I guess...

   Is it true they won't hire people with Bachelor's degree? Minimum wage jobs do hire people with Bachelor's degree so why not HHA jobs?

    Is that true that most HHA agencies would not hire be because of my degree? What if I tried to hide the fact that I went to college? Would a huge employment gap cause them to not hire me because I didn't have a steady job?

    flod replied to flod's topic in New York

    I'm not homeless here because I'm living with my family. But there are no jobs here, so if I move to a place with the most likelihood of finding a job, I won't have money for a room at least initially.
