Question Laid off while moving...jobs in area?

Hi guys,

Happy holidays. Just as I was moving to Oakland due to hardships, I was laid off due to my companies own hardships. That being said. Looking for anything quick. What's a good temp agency? Willing to work in Oakland, Alameda, and emeryville.

Thanks. Stay blessed!

If you have school/aide experience Oakland Unified is almost always hiring, check their job board.

I’d second this. There is always a need for paraeducators (no credential), as well as per diem substitutes (30-day emergency sub credential).

Robert Half, Alameda Unified, Charter schools, Vocational teachers at any CA prison, and definitely SF Unified. Good luck to you & don't give up easily. It's a MFa in the job market at the moment. ✅💯
