Lowe’s Announces Plan to Increase Workforce, Reduce Support Functions

Was hired under "seasonal" when that wasn't quite what I was looking for. See I have to move out of my old apartment in a 50 day window, and now I need a new job before I can move out in roughly 20 days. So I just have one question left. Is anyone hiring in Tucson for full time?

The stress of trying to find a new job for me is increased. Due to needing to find a job in 20 days. And moving out of my old apartment in 50 days . Was working at a jewelry store and come to find out, they hired me on under "seasonal " work. Which is now over. So that leads me to only one question. . . . is anyone hiring in Tucson, AZ?

I’ve seen Season Workers having to change their direction - looking for continued employment.

What this means after 20 plus years you May have to reinvent the wheel.

As a Manager - whatever your specialty or strong skill set can cross over to another skill set in making you more marketable

For example - it seems to be the trend now If you have strong computer skills in IT Apply for positions in doing statistical data - to Market a particular program - in telling the story of a particular group - having s general understanding of the mission & Representative of the functions - able to build a platform to serve the organization would set you apart from other applicants.

Perhaps you managed a workgroup of Individuals where your acquired skills can be better served in another setting for example in Outreach getting the word out to increase sales, resources, services like in Employment, career Development etc.

If your background in Marketing you may want to do a new makeover on you in selling yourself using your Marketing to manage a group in doing Outreach, Employment - Healthcare etc.

Do a makeover of your strengths and look at the workforce where you could be valuable.

I hope this helps you with your next job searc & Interview - Be sure to update your resume as well.

Good Luck!

Recently went to an interview for an hourly job. Nothing major, just mediocre work to pay the bills. When I had spoken to the hiring manager on the phone, he was pleasant but almost dismissive when he heard my high pitched voice across the receiver. I had figured he was just having a long day, as it was after noon and it was almost the weekend.

We scheduled an interview for the following Monday, my hopes were that he would be well rested by then and ready to start a new. When I arrived 10 minutes early to the interview, no one was in the main lobby to greet me as I had expected. I thought perhaps they had stepped out for a minute, but when I called out a "hello" a disgruntled voice responded from an office to my left "Can I help you with something?"

I walked into the office to see the name of the man I had spoken to on the phone sitting on a plaque on the desk in front of me. I smiled and reached out my hand to shake his, offering an introduction and thanking him for his time. He almost looked shocked. He then proceeded to scramble around some papers laid out across his desk and ask me in almost a questioning way why I was there... I tried not to let my shock and confusion come out in my facial expression. I had never experienced an interview like this before.

I explained to him all of my job history that qualifies me for the position, specific examples, and what I sought from this experience. He then explained to me that it is only a seasonal gig, which I responded politely that I was aware from the job description when I applied and that was what I was looking for at that moment. He then proceeded to belittle me by printing off a sheet of all the local job listings and handing it to me to "look over briefly", all of which listed I had already seen and applied to on my own time. I had not recieved a call back from any of those as of yet.

I then turned to my written questions I had prepared for this interview and asked a couple, which got him talking about the job again. But during this time, he repeatedly kept saying "it's not a gender thing, but I'd probably have you cleaning bathrooms and the trucks and this office", which was not listed as any of the duties of the job I had applied for. I then tried to discuss the job description and specifics about an average work day, which he then turned around and told me he only had a male staff and didn't want to let that bother me. I told him "that is fine, men do not intimidate me."

Then, we heard a door slam and he called out to "the shift lead that is head of this crew" and offered him to join in the interview as "he would be the guy to ask questions to". When this man entered the room, the hiring manager then said to him and I quote, "Hey man, this young lady came in for an interview today for that open seasonal position you've got. It had slipped my mind but SHE sure didn't forget, hahaha." And they shared an elongated laugh together as my face began to burn. I tried to remain professional and continued to ask my written questions to this shift lead as the hiring manager had suggested.

Again, as he answered my questions, they would both reference how "it's not a gender thing" and dismiss the job description I had applied for, saying "all the guys have to do this stuff too, so it's not just because you're a woman" and how I'm "overqualified" for the duties and I should really think about applying for a "better" job.

At this point, I had realized I was simply entertainment for them and they were just trying to get me out of there. So I thanked them for their time and shook both of their hands. The hiring manager told me he would call me after he had another interview and let me know about his decision, and if I'd found a job before then to let him know. And I left.

Two weeks passed, I did not call him about getting a job and I never received a call back from them either.

Moral of the story, I felt not only embarrassed but humiliated. They treated me like I was a joke but used the word "overqualified" to soften the blow. Why invite me for an interview if you did not intend on hiring me? Why even make me waste the time and gas? I'm so hurt and confused why this even took place from the get-go. If you had seen on my application that I am female and you do not want any women on your staff then you are Not obligated to call me in for an interview and waste my time.

I'd like to hear some feedback on this situation, as it still bothers me. I have never in my 10+ years of being in the workforce ever had such an encounter before and would like to know any tips about how to appropriately handle this kind of situation if I am to come upon something like this again in my future? I appreciate any advice you can spare.

I'm not sure whether others are interested, but I got hired as a US driver helper to go through the holiday season. The basic requirements are can you lift up to 70 pounds and deal with being outdoors in lousy weather. You wear your own clean clothes and you meet up with your driver who also drops you at the end of your day. Here the pay is $10.50 an hour with a weekly bonus of $150 for being on-time each day. Not a career position by any stretch, but a decent short-term seasonal position.

I’m a teen looking for a job over the summer in 2019. Any ideas?
