A 17-year-old resident of Lincoln has taken to social media to express her struggles with finding part-time work in the current unfavourable economic situation. The teenager prefers to remain unnamed and began her employment search in September, but as of yet, has been unsuccessful. She specifically requires a job that fits around her existing personal commitments, making her unavailable for work on weekends.
The teenager’s post about her experience was made on Reddit, a popular online platform. This prompted several community members to respond with suggestions and potential job leads. Retail or fast food roles, known for their fluid workforce and resulting recurring job vacancies, were among the recommendations. The community also recognised Hickory’s as an employment-friendly vendor for young individuals seeking work.
Further advice provided by the community for this young job searcher included investigating opportunities through recruitment agencies and visiting corporate websites. Stores such as Tesco and McDonald’s often publish job listings on their own sites that may not appear on generic job boards.
This cry for help highlights the obstacles young job seekers in Lincoln are facing. They are having to grapple with a challenging job market within an economy currently experiencing difficulties.
