Companies Hiring: The Midwest Edition

As I mentioned a couple of weeks ago, we (your faithful Work Buzz crew) realize you (our dear readers) come to the blog for a variety of reasons. One of those reasons is the desire to find a new job. We do our best to point you in the right direction with our monthly hiring lists. However, as you know it’s a big country and it’s tough to hit all the markets every time.

We also know that job hunting takes up a lot of time and we want to make your quest as easy as possible. Starting today we’ll be trying a new weekly feature: job opportunities by region. Each week we’ll focus on a different area of the country and list some employers who are hiring in each of those states.

For the sake of simplicity, we’re dividing the country into four regions: Midwest, Northeast, South and West. (I’ve seen as many as eight regional divisions, but that just seems excessive.) Today we’ll start with the Midwest and work our way clockwise week by week.

You can click on the state to see a list of its job opportunities, on the company name to view all of its openings, regardless of location, and you can click on the job title to go directly to that opening. Also, we try to present a diverse group of opportunities, so we highlight jobs for various industries and educational levels.
