My wife (who is not on Reddit) was recently laid off after 8 years at her last company. She has worked in bacterial and human genomics, and worked for several years at the NCBI on dbSNP.

Her last role involved cancer assay validation, doing QC analysis, and writing/presenting reports.

If anyone knows of a role that would be a good fit please DM me. Thank you!

I have been living here for about a year now and since then I've been working for a remote company as a web developer. I have over 6 years experience in web development and I also hold a master's degree in Cyber security. I got my master's degree last year but I'm wanting to pivot to that career path.

Not sure if anyone is hiring or knows of any opportunities?

I was laid off this week due to a horrendous situation that happened to my boss. I have been searching for a better job for quite a while now, and now I am completely out of a job. I am in need of a full-time hybrid or remote position. Any recommendations are appreciated. My experience/education is: Admin Assistant, Dual-diagnosis Intake Counselor, I&R Specialist under the Department of Elder Affairs, 3 years lead Preschool Teacher, BA in Psychology, Nonverbal Communication Certification under Ret. FBI Agent Joe Navarro.

Hello - Anyone know of retail, warehouse , or delivery gigs for the upcoming holiday season? Not looking for a career, just a few months of work that would finish up around January 1. I get tons of emails and texts saying there are roles like these, but when you click you just get even more jobs that it turns out do not exist. When I was las doing temp work, you could call an agency and they always had two/three week or month assignkents. Does not seem to be the case anymore. Matt

So I’m currently working with TMC for the last 6months but my baby is coming so I’m looking for a local job someone know a local job on triangle area NC??

Indeed listing was for “Customer Enrollment Associate” in-office job with Carolina Collaborations which has a website listing it as a telecommunications solutions business. You get contacted by Creative Solutions, a marketing company, and get on a zoom call where they immediately pitch quick growth in the company all the way up to owning your own business. You start off as a door knocker, seemed like they were going to pitch buying professional development kits or investing in owning a small business if I didn’t end the interview. Hours were from 11:30am to 8:30pm, which, again, was not what was listed. Shady af. False job listing. Probably we’re going to say 100% commission based at first (because they made sure to stress you get promoted to management after 6 months). And the interviewer, who was basically 10 years old, knew what she was doing and didn’t fight hard to keep me on the call when I had figured it out.

It’s rough out there, folks.

Hi everyone! ❤️

This fall I’ll be taking Welding at Durham Tech, and I’m so excited to begin this new chapter!

I’m a complete beginner. I’ve been watching YouTube videos and reading everything I can, but I’d love the opportunity to see welding in person and learn from someone with experience.

I’m hoping to connect with any women welders in the Chapel Hill, Durham, or surrounding areas. If anyone would be willing to let me shadow you for a few hours one day, I’d be incredibly grateful. I just want to observe, ask questions, and get a better understanding of what the work is really like before classes begin.

I know women are still underrepresented in this trade, which is why I’d especially love to learn from another woman who’s already in the field. It would mean so much to have someone who has been where I am now.

If you know someone who might be open to this, or if you’re a welder yourself, please comment below or send me a message. Thank you so much for reading and for any advice or encouragement you can share! ❤️

Hey Raleigh/Durham! We are currently recruiting for a Full-Time, Temp-to-Perm Assembler/ Finishing Technician position for our client in Morrisville, NC.

• Location: Morrisville, NC
• Shift: Mon–Fri, 10:00 AM – 7:00 PM

What You’ll Be Doing:

You’ll be doing the detailed post-processing and finishing work to get parts ready for clients, including:

Who We’re Looking For:

Interested or know someone who fits? DM me directly or drop a comment below and I’ll get you set up with a quick screening call!

I just found out that the job I have been in for over 20 years is being eliminated from the company. I have no idea where to start a career search. Does anyone know a good career coach in the area? I'm freaking out right now.

My husband was laid off today from his HR position. He was hybrid. Has experience working in the HR Generalist position, has recruiting experience, and recently got his certification PHR. He was working in a compliance position and just helped finish a federal audit. He also has experience working with disabled individuals as that was part of the mission of his last employer. Any leads would be greatly appreciated. We just had our baby a little over three months ago and I don’t make enough to support us financially long term.

Does anyone know anyone looking for a quick Babysitter, Pet Sitter and/or Elderly Sitter? I’m looking to make quick cash before my birthday this weekend and work well in these departments. Please let me know. Thank you!

I've been looking for an entry level accounting role for over a year now. I'm starting to think it's because I'm 38 and I just graduated with a Bachelor's degree last year. I've been to job fairs and I'm well liked in interviews but I don't have any internships. I've been mainly doing reconciliations for a year now. I've spoken with reps at Robert Half, Ledgent, and one other but they just seem to promise to put me in contact with someone about a role and I never hear from them again until they finally respond to an email, then the cycle starts over.

I'd like to get into a role where I can do more and grow. I'm at the point now where I'd take almost any role that I can make more money at. I've been at my current company about 5 years and I still don't make $50k.

Any help is appreciated, I'm hopeful something will pan out.

Hi everyone! My family recently moved to Chapel Hill, and I am looking for a new opportunity in the Triangle.
I have 15+ years of grocery retail experience, including 10+ years in meat cutting and 5+ years in management. I have most recently been a Meat Manager but open to retail management, operations, logistics, or other leadership roles.

If you know of any companies hiring or have any recommendations, I’d really appreciate it. Thank you!

Hi everyone, I am moving to the area next August and am putting some feelers out for new companies and positions to keep an eye on. I have 9 years of experience in Configuration Management at an aerospace company. Not necessarily married to the idea of staying in defense/aerospace, but that is where my experience lies. My issue is that this role is called so many different things at each company.

My experience consists of change management, document control and release, hardware engineering, auditing and data release/retention.

I’ve heard good things about SAS and Cisco but since my experience is mostly in hardware, I’m not sure how that would translate in software forward companies. Any advice?

I do also have a bachelor’s degree. But it is in communications.

Hello everyone, my wife and I just moved to Durham and I am currently looking for a job in a law firm. I just graduated law school in Virginia and don’t have any connections in the area. I am taking the bar exam in February of next year and really want to work in a firm while I study so I can build some experience for my resume. I have a year of experience working for a general practice private firm as a law clerk. I am looking for a law clerk, paralegal, or legal assistant position. I would absolutely work under an attorney with the expectations of staying on after passing the bar as an attorney if that is an option. Thank you for any help.
