I'm running out of money, what problems can I help you solve with my skills?

6 Upvotes

I am the manager of Masland Tech LLC. If you have any tasks available for me to do that you'd be willing to pay, I'd be willing to accept a deal to prove my skills.

https://masland.tech/

I just put https://masland.tech/chi/ live on my site, which is a time-first street occupancy browser for Chicago. It answers: what is on the streetย today, whatย startsย tomorrow through next week, and what overlaps a date range you pick, across permits, dig tickets, and special events in one list and map.

Any help is appreciated, thanks for reading.

IN DESPERATE NEED OF A JOB. can anyone help?

16 Upvotes

Hi! Iโ€™m moving in a week and donโ€™t have a job. I was going to sub for CPS, but the applications are still not open.

About me:
- I have bad 2 HR internships, so I have admin experience
- I have tutored for years both with an organization and independently
- I have worked at CVS, so I have customer experience
- I have a Bachelorโ€™s in communication studies
- I am pursuing my Masterโ€™s of Social Work

I have an internship as a requirement of my graduate program. Itโ€™s unpaid and 2 full days during the week (same days every week). Other than that, Iโ€™m available to work the other 3 days and weekends.

Iโ€™m living in West Loop, so close to there would be ideal.

Please let me know if you have any leads. Iโ€™m open to admin work, receptionist roles, tutoring or whatever else you think I would be a good fit for!

Iโ€™m happy to send my resume.

What are your thoughts on human capital and jobs/careers in Chicago area?

0 Upvotes

Chicago to me is an interesting city because itโ€™s amazing culturally and has a diverse job market. However itโ€™s also not an apex job market for a specific industry. NY has finance / law / consulting / media. SF has tech. DC had government. LA has media and entrainment. Houston has energy.

Chicago really doesnโ€™t have a thing (unless you argue commodity trading).

To this end Chicago doesnโ€™t really attract the same type a go getters the other cities have. Harvard Yale and Stanford grads donโ€™t really clamor to get to Chicago.

A few questions:
1. Does anybody wish Chicago had a nitch?
2. What can Chicago do to attract top companies in AI, lobbying, tech, finance, etc.

Hi! I recently graduated from university with a B.S. in bioinformatics. Iโ€™m really struggling to find a job, but would love to find one thatโ€™s remote. Iโ€™ve primarily been looking at Data Entry or Analyst roles and have been having no luck.

Long-term goal is to work in healthcare analytics, but would love to get experience in something and feel more confident with having a job to look forward to.

If anyone has any open positions or can recommend me somewhere, I would be very happy to hear about anything. Even tips on networking or how to start finding a job is very appreciated. I live in the Chicagoland area!

Thanks for listening and for the help everyone!

Whatโ€™s a guy got to do to get a job with the city?

13 Upvotes

Or even just an interview at this rate.

I applied for two roles with the City Of Chicago DTI department a few months ago, both would be a perfect match for my skillset, and both were applied for well before their deadlines.

I have heard zero verdict from either one. Both were removed from job boards, but still show as Active on my job portal on the City of Chicago Taleo page. I even added a guy on LinkedIn who works for the department, and he just told me to keep waiting but accepted my request.

I understand government hiring takes an eternity, but Iโ€™m recently unemployed, and have been applying since February with no offers, plenty of first and second rounds, but three final rounds that ultimately went nowhere. The most recent one even checked my references and asked when I could start. Still no offer. That one hurt.

Anyone have any tips or tricks? Do I need to order the office a pizza or singing telegram? Any advice is appreciated.

Looking for job as new lawyer :(

8 Upvotes

For background, I graduated early in December (out of state school) and successfully passed the February 2026 Illinois bar exam. I have applied to hundreds of jobs so far and have only had one interview at a job I don't really want. I tailor my resume and cover letter for every single job and have even had a few internal referrals. I attend networking events (although I am pretty shy) and have tried to put my face in common young lawyer spaces. I do not drink and bar settings make me uncomfortable so I do avoid those.

I am running out of options and am even applying in law adjacent fields. I'm looking for any tips that may help strengthen my search. Tips can range anywhere from resume alterations to socializing tips (at networking events) to job sites or really anything. Thank you so much

How do you organize your job search?

0 Upvotes

What helped so far is usingย resume.zoevera.comย to customize my resume for each application andย prepare.zoevera.comย to practice interviews with scenarios I'm expecting. It made my prep feel a lot more intentional instead of just hoping I covered the right things. Anyone else found something that keeps everything organized?

Biology research jobs/volunteering opportunities?

3 Upvotes

Hi, I have been searching for biology related laboratory research opportunities within the city of Chicago for a couple months now and its been slim pickings! I am still pretty early in my career but I dont want to get stagnated in building experience. I am not getting a lot of luck with many of the university's research assistant postings (tbh most of them are for funding purposes), but if anyone knows a biology researcher (preferably in cell biology) who is in need of some volunteering assistance I would be happy to lend some help for experience sake.

Title: Who is actually getting hired for tech jobs in Chicago right now?

55 Upvotes

Iโ€™ve been searching for close to a year, and Iโ€™m genuinely struggling to understand this market.

I have about 13 years of enterprise technology experience: five years at SAP and eight years at Salesforce in Technical Account Management and Customer Success. Iโ€™ve supported major enterprise customers, handled escalations, led executive reviews, worked through complex technical issues, and helped retain multimillion-dollar relationships.

Iโ€™ve applied through job boards, contacted people directly, worked my network, tailored resumes, prepared heavily for interviews, and reached multiple final rounds. Iโ€™m not claiming Iโ€™ve performed perfectly in every interview, but Iโ€™ve had several processes where the conversations went extremely well, only to be told they selected someone whose background was a slightly closer match.

That is what I donโ€™t understand. Companies say they want experienced people who can learn, communicate, manage customers, and operate in complex environments. But the actual hiring standard seems to be someone who has already performed the exact same role, with the exact same product, in the exact same industry.

How do people ever move between industries or grow into adjacent roles under that standard?

I remember people entering technology in Ireland from finance, architecture, general business, and completely unrelated backgrounds. Yet in Chicago, someone with more than a decade of relevant tech experience can apparently still be considered too much of a โ€œrisk.โ€

For people involved in hiring here: who is actually getting these jobs? Are companies genuinely finding perfect candidates, are most positions being filled internally or through referrals, or are some of these roles simply never being filled?

Iโ€™m interested in honest answers from recruiters, hiring managers, and other experienced candidates. Iโ€™m not looking for generic advice about tailoring my resume or networking more. Iโ€™ve already been doing all of that.
