Kay Jewelers (Jobs)

There are seven Kay Jewelers stores within thriteen miles of the 92101
zip code.  You can apply for jobs online from their website and your
application will be sent to the store nearest you. I would suggest visiting
the store nearest you to see if you can fill out an application in person. 
Remember when you go to fill out applications in person you should
dress like you would for an interview.  If you are lucky you will get to
meet the manager, and you want to look your best!

Hyatt (Jobs)

The Hyatt owns and operates four hotels in the San Diego area. 
I had a difficult time searching their website for jobs, but ater
trying to click on the map several times, it finally worked.  Keep
trying, the search feature does work.  The website listed positions

massage therapist, cocktail server, concierge, cashier, business
center agent, etc.

Borders (Jobs)

There are seven Borders book stores within thirty miles of the 92101
zip code.  Their website doesn't list hourly positions that are open at
their various stores, so it is difficult to know if they are hiring.  You can
visit the nearest store to you, and ask the manager if they are hiring, or
you can fill out their application online, and hope there is an opening.

CVS/Pharmacy (Jobs)

CVS has fifty eight stores within twenty four miles of the 91201 zip
code. On the website you can search for individual stores and see a
list of positions they are hiring for.  Some of the positions available are
beauty advisor, customer service, merchandiser, pharmacy technician,
shift supervisor, etc.  You can apply to the individual stores online.  It
might be worth a trip to your local store to see if they accept
applications in person though.

Nordstrom (Jobs)

There are four Nordstrom stores within fifteen miles of the 92101
zip code.  I searched their website for jobs and there were two and
half pages of open positions, and most of them were in retail sales. 
If you are interested in working in retail, this might be the place for
you.  You can apply online, but it would be worth your time to go to
the store closest to you and ask if you can fill out an application there. 
I always prefer applying in person over applying on the Internet.

on their website.  They have positions as centeralized
scheduler, certified home health aide, certified nursing
assistant, customer service, licensed vocational nurse,

Bank of America (Jobs)

Bank of America has fifty locations within an eighteen mile radius
of zip code 92101.  These locations are called banking centers on

are simply ATMs.  When I did a search for jobs in San Diego on
the Bank of America site I came up with mortgage loan officer,
teller, financial advisor trainee, residential appraiser, fulfillment team
leader, home services specialist, etc.

The Hard Rock Hotel in San Diego has a variety of jobs.  When I
searched their website I found openings as a executive chef, culinary
supervisor, cook, bell person, night auditor, housekeeper, human
resources director, etc.  The building is really cool and would make
for a great environment to work in.  If you worked for the
Hard Rock Hotel I imagine you would see some famous musicians,
and that would be a nice bonus!

Del Mar Fairgrounds (Jobs)

The Del Mar Fairgrounds has a wide variety of jobs.  When I checked
their website they were only hiring for temporary employees but they had
many openings.  A temporary job can be a great place to start.  Often
temporary jobs can lead to a permanent position.  A temporary job can
also help you to get some recent experience to put on your resume and put
some cash in your pocket!   Some of the positions available at Del Mar
Fairgrounds are supervisor, exhibit worker, ticket seller, marketing, public
relations writer, laborer, shuttle coordinator, etc.

Starbucks (Jobs)

Starbucks has twenty five locations near the 92101 zip code!  That
means there are a lot of Starbucks in San Diego, and that means jobs! 
Each store hires their own employees, but you can fill out an application
online at their website for individual stores.  If I were looking to work at
Starbucks, I would go to the location in person - dress for an interview,
and ask to fill out an application.  I think going in person is almost always
better than filling out applications online. 

Tuesday, March 2, 2010

Sycuan Casino and Tribe (Jobs)

On the Sycuan website there are jobs posted for both the casino and
the tribe.  The types of openings they have are for a restaurant server,
CNA, carpenter, housekeeper, bartender, medical assistant outreach,
slot server, teacher's aide, valet attendant, buffet cashier, etc.  They
have shuttles from almost every area in San Diego County that go to
the casino.  I don't know if employees are allowed to take the shuttles
or not.
