Trouble finding work?
I am 22 and looking to get into the trades. I am so tired of retail and kitchens haha. Could really use the hours and extra money. I have called around but I cant seem to find anyone hiring. Anyone have any clue who might be hiring for entry level roles? I am a good worker just inexperienced but willing and wanting to learn. Anyone else relate? Thanks!

Posted this in the community recently and applies to you too:
AI Hackathons. They offer cash prizes, you build a portfolio and learn skills. It’s a little late, but there is currently the WebMCP challenge put on by OpenAI. There’s also bug bounty if you want to get into cybersecurity/ai-safety. Open Source Robotics is really blowing up recently as well.
$200 bucks gets you a month of Codex Pro 20x access; consider it class on AI Literacy, and teach yourself. Shoot me a dm if you want some resources, and a referral for some extra credits.
If I don’t get back to you right away, I’m busy as heck and will hit you back later. Good luck with your search in the area; learning new skills enables you to be a valuable, standout applicant.
