Applying for Delivery Apps

Now that I have gotten my car and I have insurance, I can start applying for work.

I am starting by applying for delivery apps widely used in the gig economy. Depending on success rate I may also apply for more traditional jobs.

I found some helpful advice from reddit users who directed me to the Express website. I also have a list of local employers that may be willing to hire me.

I will add the apps I apply for to the list on this post.

There were a few apps that I couldn’t figure out if they were still operating.

Senpex always says “in review…”, the DrivePoint website doesn’t work, and GOMO which said it was available as “Early Access” only.

Since I’m at it I may as well include a list of regular jobs that I have applied to. I’ve experienced a bunch of rejections recently, enough perhaps to begin a list, not that this is something to brag about…
