i am puzzled by the absence of comments on job opportunities in infrastructure&green energy technology projects as a result of the stimulus funding& potential impacts of the climate change bill recently passed by the house of reps.guidance on how to seek such info should be of value to job seekers.
i'm looking forward to comments on my comment.are green jobs&work to support infrastructure activity emerging in the chicago area?what factors are affecting the pace of such job growth as a result of stimulus funding?what are the problems slowing this growth for young people?
given the stimulus,it isof great interest to identify how green technology& infrastructure job opportunities are emerging as the federal funding is made available.chicago is also a major transportation hub& that sector may see some significant activity.
