Unfortunately, you have to start at the bottom. There are jobs that don't require literacy but you will need help filling out paperwork, THERE IS ALWAYS PAPERWORK. It may also take you longer to find a job than someone else, but you won't find one if you don't try. Make use of your other assets. When you go to apply for a job, look neat, clean, and appropriately dressed. Appropriate, meaning if you are applying for a hotel maid job, don't wear a business suit and don't dress like you do when cleaning your own house. Make the best use of verbal skills, speak plainly and answer the questions asked without going all over the place. Stress that you are willing to work hard, be reliable, and follow instructions.
Now, one of the most important things you can do is get started on literacy. Find out where there are literacy volunteers or community resources for literacy. Call your local library or high school, it they don't have these resources, ask them to refer you further. Do this first so that you will have a plan in place to demonstrate to prospective employers that you are willing to do what it takes to accomplish goals. You may even find a literacy volunteer who will go with you to help complete paperwork until you can do it yourself. If you don't make this effort, you can expect to remain in the lowest paying jobs.
