Ive just moved here to Philadelphia and am in Urgent need of a job. I have 2 years manufacturing experience and 20 plus cashier experience in grocery and retail stores. What is the fastest , most effective way to obtain a job ?

Go to a place called Reading terminal they always hiring also try temp agency as wellk good luck!

There are dozens of temp agencies in Philly area, and many of them have openings related to food service. Some are temp to perm, and many are seasonal (corporate events, weddings). Best way to apply is online, and on job boards like indeed.com or LinkedIn; that way, you'll hit different companies at once. Good luck and Godspeed!
