Looking for advice on job hunting while dealing with a couple of constraints
Hey everyone, hoping to get some general advice. I’m a college student trying to finish my last year and need to find work to help cover me the rest of the way. I don’t have a car, so I’m limited to jobs I can reach without driving, which narrows things down a bit.
A little about my background: a few years of front desk/guest services and customer service experience — hotels, retail, a law office reception role, and some admin work during tax season. Comfortable with check-ins, phones, scheduling, handling customers, that kind of thing, and I’m Microsoft Office certified.
The main thing I’m working around is a previous hip injury from an accident, so I need to avoid roles that have me standing all day. Something with a mix of sitting and light movement is ideal — front desk, reception, admin, customer service, etc.
My availability is wide open right now, so scheduling isn’t an issue on my end.
Would appreciate any general advice — how you’d approach the search with these kinds of constraints, how to bring up the standing limitation without it working against me, or anything you wish you’d known when you were job hunting under a tight timeline. Thanks!
