Jobs

We recommend: Craigslist Chicago - Tribune Career Builder 

I have provided links to Craigslist Chicago as well as the Chicago Tribune's Career Builder web section. These are good starting points for testing the job markets. The city lends itself to commuters given the public transportation system and the wealth of business. 

Commuting throughout the suburbs is, however, a different story. A constant item on local tv news is how are the traffic times. It is no secret that many of the roads are severely overloaded and people are wise to avoid them during the hours of 6-9am and 3:30-7pm. If you must take the interstates, check out the traffic data on Google maps beforehand to see if you can avoid the bad spots. 

Given the economy and long commutes, many workers are transitioning to work-from-home arrangements, either working their job from a home office or starting a new entreprenuerial venture out of the house. 

Small Businesses 

Chicago might seem like a city teeming with commuters, but its also a city full of courageous business owners and world-class entreprenuers. Attorneys, doctors, consultants, and financial professionals call the city home while building a small house in the resources of the city. Clients are easily dazzled with the many things to see and do while visiting the city. 

With the internet, businesses can build a professional web site, advertise on Google AdWords for a product or service, and carry out marketing all from their home or a mobile office. Various companies, including WriterShore Web Services, provide comprehensive business services to help get an offline business launched on the Internet.
