Customer Service Representative - Many companies hire for customer service roles that involve answering questions, handling complaints, and providing information to customers via phone, email, or chat. These roles often have on-the-job training.
Retail Sales Associate - Working in retail stores assisting customers, stocking shelves, and operating cash registers. Experience is valued, even if the job doesn't require advanced skills.
Food Service (Restaurants, Cafeterias, etc.) - Jobs like servers, hosts, cashiers, and food preparation workers are commonly available. Prior experience is helpful but not always required.
Delivery Driver - Driving for companies that deliver packages, food, or other goods is an option. A clean driving record is typically needed.
Janitor/Cleaner - Maintaining cleanliness of buildings and facilities. Physical stamina is required but the work doesn't necessitate high skills.
Home Health Aide - Providing basic care and assistance for the elderly or disabled in their homes. Some training is usually involved.
Landscaping/Groundskeeping - Outdoor maintenance work caring for grounds and gardens at businesses, parks, etc.
The key is often having a combination of reliability, work ethic, customer service skills and some prior related experience rather than advanced technical skills. Opportunities exist in 2024 for motivated lower-skilled workers in their 40s and beyond.
