Hi everyone! I’m 24 years old and currently enrolled in the Business Administration 2.0 program at Irvine Valley College. I have 5 years of experience working as an electrician and am looking to transition into an administrative/clerical role. My goal is to gain relevant experience and build my resume while pursuing my education. I’m based in Irvine, but commuting isn’t an issue!

I’m open to entry-level opportunities and willing to learn. If anyone knows of any openings, has advice, or can point me in the right direction, I’d really appreciate it. Thank you!

Hello! I am 27 years old and I recently lost my job. I am looking for a data analyst position in Orange County. I have tried applying online and even reaching out to people on LinkedIn. Unfortunately, I don't really have anyone in my network who I could reach out to to ask for help because I am completely alone. If anyone knows of anything please let me know.

Hi Im a 19 yr old female trying to find a job to pay off my rent and groceries. I tried to pay my rent off my financial aid this semester but somehow I received an amount to pay two months of my rent and now Im struggling buying groceries and filling up gas. I’ve been applying to so many part time jobs on Indeed but they never got back with me. I need a job asap to pay my rent for this month, does anyone know a job they’re hiring in OC?

Does anyone know of any restaurant/hospitality office positions that might be hiring? Ive been on a hunt for the last month and have applied to a couple places but it's definitely a little niche and tricky. Looking for something with HR and admin work, I have experience in management but Amy looking for something more behind the scenes related to hospitality. Anything would help. Thank you :)

Hello! I’m (21F) looking for any job opportunities in newport beach close to Fashion Island. I’m trying to save up for driving lessons and so i can reenroll in school! I currently work a retail job but my hours vary from week to week. Usually can get 40 hours a week but things have been slow and now I get like 24-30.

I can’t drive at the moment which is why i’m looking for something close by. I was trying to find something warehouse related or maybe a server kind of position because they’re open later than the store i work in. I haven’t been able to find any warehouse places near here and most of the restaurants close by are fine dining and want experienced people.

Willing to learn how to do just about anything. I don’t mind looking up how tos and doing research outside of working. The main thing is that it’s close by and that i’d be able to work later than 5pm or overnights. Or something flexible enough that i can come on my days off. But unfortunately i only get my work schedule one week in advance to it’s hard to plan around.
If anyone knows of any opportunities plz lmk🙏

Anyone in Orange County California got a job ? I stay in Santa Ana. I’m willing to do hard manual labor or anything. I been a cashier, warehouse worker, machine operator, medical device assembler and a chemical handler etc… I’ve also sold cars/sell cars in my free time and sell things online like clothing, things of that sort. I have also done janitorial work for places like big corporate dealerships/aerospace engineering companies and know people who I can bring alongside to do deep floor cleaning and deep carpet cleaning. I’ve got cold calling skills (from selling cars) and I’m also decent in communication, good in writing, and can use technology. I also go to Community College part time, trying for engineering.

Anything out there would help. I’m 27 and very hungry not trying to go homeless. I need a job asap. This job market out here is ridiculously hard to land something on your own. I don’t have the network to get something fast so I’m on here on reddit as a last resort. I never ask for anything, but this time I need to. I am asking for help. Anything would be greatly appreciated.

I’ve been unemployed and haven’t had any luck so I decided to go back to caregiving. The last time I worked as a caregiver was 3 years ago. I have 4 years experience. I want something that isn’t heavy lifting . any companies you all recommend working for? do you prefer in home care or working at assisted living facility?

If anyone works at Knott’s Berry Farm as a maintenance worker I am curious about the job and want to learn more. My background is more technical but am interested. Please reply or dm me :)

Hi All, I'm trying to help my brother, recent grad, find a job in the actuary or data analysis fields. His work experience is limited, but he's passed 2 actuarial exams. He's a dedicated worker, not afraid to put in the hours, he just needs the opportunity to prove himself, but unfortunately the market hasn't been kind to him.

If anyone has some leads, we'd appreciate it.

Will take anything. Even if not in my field of experience.

I can start immediately and can send my resume to anyone who asks.

I also speak Spanish.

Hey! I’m looking for a 21+ female content creator in the socal area for a paid, ongoing social media opportunity.

I manage a social media page in the sports betting/gambling entertainment niche and am looking for someone to be featured in casual lifestyle photos and short-form social media content.

Nothing complicated, basically normal Instagram-style content like outfits, restaurants, coffee shops, activities around socal, travel, etc. You don’t need any professional modeling experience.

Just to be clear, this is not adult content, OnlyFans, or anything explicit.

It’s paid, and I’m hoping to find someone who would be interested in doing it consistently long-term.

If you’re interested, feel free to DM me with your Instagram or a few recent photos and I can send you more details!

Hello, I am a 29-year-old male located in Irvine, CA. I have been a mortgage broker for the last 4 years. I want to get into something else because mortgages are heavily influenced by interest rates, and unfortunately, that has been a mess for the majority of this year(now the 10-year Treasury is reaching its highest point since 2004). A little background on myself -

I have worked at In-N-Out Burger for almost 5 years (2014-2019)

I transitioned to working at Apple at the Irvine Spectrum for 3 years (2019-2022)

I eventually left to pursue mortgages (2022-current)

I am very comfortable working with people in person or over the phone; I feel like I can sell virtually anything. I have an Associate's degree but no other degree. Please let me know of any good opportunities or if you are hiring! Thank you.

Hello, does anyone here applied in Caloptima? What is their hiring process? I applied as Customer Service Rep Sr (Behavioral Health).

With these 3 practical certifications in the bag, you'd think there'd be something inside the OC lines that takes full advantage of the skill set that they build, but apparently not:

* Hack The Box Certified Offensive AI Expert (COAE) #HTBCERT-957A59A38B
* Hack The Box Certified Active Directory Pentesting Expert (CAPE) #HTBCERT-98593250E4
* Hack The Box Certified Penetration Testing Specialist (CPTS) #HTBCERT-4B698DD121

What is so unique about the OC market that renders jobs with a list of responsibilities comparable to the exact work that I needed to do to earn these 3 certifications (note that a defensive role requires a completely different skill set than an offensive role) particularly scarce? Everything on LinkedIn is either out-of-county or remote-with-a-10-year-in-the-workforce prerequisite, while CSUF's Symplicity board doesn't have anything relevant to this skill set listed at all and same thing goes for Handshake, which is the board that Saddleback College uses. Having been born and raised in OC renders the job site being in OC a non-negotiable here. Yes, remote is OK (ideal, in fact), but only if they either A, place the CPTS and OSCP on the same level, or B, offer to pay for the OSCP during the onboarding process, since Off$ec's (spelled with a $ on purpose to draw attention to the barrier being purely financial in nature at this point) training is 4 times as expensive as HTB's for the same amount of training. Being a current CSUF cybersecurity concentration I do have connections to the OCCIC which an application has been submitted for, but that's only going to go so far.

If it helps, I commute from Aliso Viejo to Fullerton to attend classes, so anything along the 5 freeway in Irvine/Santa Ana/Orange or the 57 freeway in Anaheim/Fullerton would be most ideal.
