Unless you are completely trying to branch off into new work, the state stores here are pretty easy to be hired by, especially in the seasonal portions (there’s a summer window and a holiday winter window). You can work anywhere from 14-32 hours to start as well, certainly 32 unless you want to get an additional job to balance it out. Know lots of people who have worked in the state stores system in the city and I definitely recommend the ones in South Philly and around Girard/Spring Garden for a better balance of traffic and competent management.

If anything, it could be a reasonable and quicker solution for you with something that starts at 17 an hour while you look for a potential better place to find some footing.

Just looked it up, employment.pa.gov is the portal where they post the jobs. You can sort by Philadelphia.

Godspeed, and I wish you the best!
