Aloha all,
My wife and I are planning to move to Hawaii (Oahu) in the next year or so, but we're worried about the availability of work. I've read that Hawaii has the lowest unemployment in the United States, and that's certainly encouraging - However, Neither of us have any formal training or education in anything. We're in Japan now, and my wife's Japanese and speaks "some" English. I speak Japanese fluently, and English obviously. What's the bottom, line? Are employers as desperate to fill positions as I've heard? Or is it something of a challenge to find work? I'm talking about basically any old job to make ends meet. Anything from waiting tables, to stocking shelves. Delivery driving, room cleaning etc. I see tons of jobs on the net, but the same ones seem to be lasting. I can't tell if it's because no one have filled those positions or because they need so many people that they don't yank the ad from the net! (craigslist)
I'd really appreciate any advice/information anyone has about jobs in and around Honolulu.
Thank you!
