Aloha Everyone,
Not sure if this is the right forum to post in. So if it is not the right forum I am sure Rob will let me know.
Anyway, my wife is looking for a job and she is finding that openings are few and far between. She is an accounting clerk performing accounts payable, receivables and cash applications.
If anyone knows or hears of an opening somewhere in the Puna/Hilo side please e-mail me: konadave@konaforum.com
Mahalo!!!

Dave,
I don't know about any jobs... but does she do taxes? If so, set her up with a website and some business cards, some software and let her hit the streets passing out cards at local businesses or put a small ad in the paper for individuals.
Aloha au i Hawai`i,

Devany,
Thanks for the thought but unfortunately she doesn't do taxes. If you hear of any openings though, please let me know. She is willing to perform any office duties.

join the club Dave. Unemployment is up, jobs are scarce. I suggest we all get as creative as possible to lower living costs and bring in additional income where we can.

Dave,
I will keep my eyes and ears open for her. Maybe she is destined to be a domestic goddess? [8D]

The census folks are supposed to be hiring a bunch of temp folks. It wouldn't be a permanent job, but anything is better than nothing, isn't it?

Try the web sites - Work Force Hawaii; State sites; County sites; Newspapers...become a real detective! It took quite some time for me to get a bite, but it'll happen...Hang in there. Also Altres is an Agency in Hilo that is pretty popular.

Thanks everyone! She has applied for so many jobs that she has never done such as the census jobs from the federal government. She never hears from anyone she has applied with. She has her app in at Altres and they have sent her resume in to three companies in the last 4 months and she had only one interview and that company made it clear they were not interested by what they did. I don't want to speculate as to why.
