So they invite you to interview but then tell you they're actually not hiring? That's super weird. I've had the best luck by just talking to people in person so I tend to go in and sit at the bar and talk to whoever is working rather than scanning online for restaurant jobs

The food service industry is really struggling now - I think it’s just generally hard to find a job because restaurants aren’t doing as well as they used to. Be creative - maybe try different cuisines? Or maybe be willing to do 2 different places with only a few days each just so you can keep working?
I'm trying everywhere. I liked working 2 jobs. I did it for awhile. I love all food so I'm not picky on cuisine or casual vs for me dining. I do draw the line at McDonald's. I know it's slow season. And once all the kids go back to school something will open but in the meantime I'm struggling bad
Your not the only one, I was 9mons with out landing something until I decided to apply outside of the restaurant industry. I suggest trying in senior living settings, it’s more secure work and if you get in a good place, you may have room for growth. The restaurant industry is very unstable right now and if you’re not working for a big franchise with strong capital behind them, you maybe out of a job again. Good luck!
Thank you very much. I've been trying hotels. I have a strong background in microbiology but Im in a small town and really do like serving. I missed out on a really nice restaurant by 10 mins today. He hired the person before me who had experience. He said to give him a week to try her out but it sounds like he may give me a shot it's just discouraging. Im going to keep going to every restaurant in the area. And keep calling back someone is bound to get something
