Hi! My fiance goes to school in California, and he's coming to visit for the summer. I work 4 shifts 12 hours every week, and he said he wanted to work somewhere for the summer, and the place I work definitely isn't hiring for summer work, as it requires 5 months of training. :P

I was wondering if anyone had suggestions as to where he could apply or some advice? He doesn't really care where... I don't really know too many people in Austin, and I don't know if anyone would hire him since he lives out of state and wouldn't be able to make it to any interviews... I'd prefer somewhere in North Austin or Pflugerville, but anywhere is fine, really.

Might look at the Twin Lakes YMCA and see if he can work at the camp.

Waiting tables comes to mind, unless he is looking for something a little more directly related to whatever he is studying. Just don't mention that you will only be there a few months .

Well, he's great in customer service, and a good salesman. He worked for about two years at a Forever 21 to help pay for school. He wants to be a school counselor.

Yeah, I was thinking about checking out the YMCA up in Round Rock, but I think he'll get here too late to apply for any of the summer positions...

He's just starting his last year at Cal Poly Pomona University and he's getting a degree in Psychology.


Do any of you guys know about this Grassroots Campaign Inc.? I've seen some ads for it on Craigslist and there's mixed reviews online...
