How do homeless people get jobs?

  • How do they get jobs? If they've been in a shelter and they look presentable, how can they get jobs? Can they just go apply at Starbucks or somewhere, attend an interview, and get the job? Can't they get P.O. Boxes at homeless shelters nowadays?

  • Answer:

    Anyone can get a PO Box, you just go to the post office and rent one for about $10-12 a year. In some areas, they are free, such as where I live, since there is no postal (mailbox) delivery in this neighborhood. I know women at the battered women's shelter that interview and get jobs while they are in a temporary safe house, and women at the Victim's Resource Center and YWCA that do the same.

I dont it, how will it look on the paper work with address shelter and no phone numbers? They wont get hired there. If there shelter has some programs they could work there way up from there. Or here in canada we started a thing to give homeless free housing for two years so they can get their own job and get on their feet

If you're at a shelter, there are people there who's job it is to find people jobs and places to live. There are many community centres that offer free printing and free computer use. The centres also usually have acces to people who can help find housing and work for people.

I figure some companies will hire them like chicken factories or steel work factories. Something that lacks sophistication and minimum wage is not a problem.

Those are all the correct steps and don't forget perseverance.
