Does anyone know of any businesses currently in need of employees

I've been trying to find a job for the past few weeks and only 1 place has actually interviewed me. Are there any other places where they're actually quick to interview and hire people instead of ghosting them for weeks?

Part Time or Full Time doesn't matter to me and I would prefer not to do more than 8 hours a shift.

Also does calling to check on the status of an online application help or is it a waste of time?

Edit: Forgot to mention I'd rather stick to the Cottondale, Skyland, McFarland, and Northport area that's before the Walmart areas for employment.
