Hi everyone!

I am looking for a dental clinic that offers in-house financing. NOT Care credit/Cherry. Basically - I have no insurance & don’t qualify for medical. I’ve had a horrible medical year so far; January - mental health; Feb - Thyroid Issues, March & April - Insomnia & Heart Attack Like Panic Attacks & now possibly gum receding issues. I literally never had any of these issues until 2026, which has ran me into some pretty big financial problems.

I keep having some BS when it comes to my health; and Im trying to get a job that offers insurance. So please; if anyone knows one (preferably Tri-Valley or Hayward/SLZ area; but honestly not in the position to be picky). I tried googling but going one by one is taking forever lol.

Thanks!

Hi everyone!

I’m curious to learn what was the spacing for everyones interviews and how many did you have?

I did my first interview almost 3 weeks ago and I’m waiting to hear back on times to interview for the 2nd round and move forward. I’ve already followed up once a few days ago - but don’t wanna come across as too pushy/too eager. This would be my first time interviewing for a large system like this, so Im used to 1-2 week timelines. Is in expected to possibly have a 4-6week hiring process?

This is for an admin position.

Hi everyone!

I know the job market is tough everywhere, but I wanted to see if anyone noticed this difference from March vs April (last 30 days):

End of March, The Mercury News posted that "The job markets in the Bay Area and California are far stronger than first thought." Before Oracle, Meta, and Disney Lay-off (convenient) And although I wasn't getting ANY interviews - no, i'm not asking for resume or job board advice - I was still able to chug a good amount of applications each day across a few different industries and roles: Corporate, Small Business, State Employment, Temp, etc. for Healthcare Admin, Coordinator/Office Management, Entry Level Analyst (I have an Econ Degree w/ focus in stats/research). But this isn't about getting interviews - this is about the sudden lack of new jobs/industries posted

At the of end of April, I noticed a MASSIVE decline in jobs on tons of job boards. Professional job boards (not just linkedin) are flooded with fast food and HORRIBLE commission sales roles. There is no way I applied to every job in the bay - I probably *just* brushed off 150 applications. Even Kaiser/Sutter looks like to have dropped off a lot of bay area hospital admin roles when just a few weeks there were tons. I swear 3 weeks ago, I could find some 60k+/yr jobs, now all I am seeing is EXTREMELY low paying gigs (45k-50k or simply hourly with no range), no legit benefits, and temp/part time roles - because if you're hourly, 30/32 hrs vs 40 hrs does make a difference even if 32 technically does allow me to be benefitted. I'm seeing a decline in major corporate rolls as well too.

Has anyone noticed this shift in the last 30 days?
