Job-seeker resources

Do you want to know about job openings on the Northside and about training programs that lead to great jobs? One of our goals for 2024 is to connect more Northside community members to the workforce resources available from the NorthSideWorks! program.

Monthly job-seeker email — Each month, we send an email with information about job fairs, open positions, training programs, and other helpful information. Sign up to receive that email at bit.ly/3TqRGvG.

Social media — Throughout the week, we share information about jobs and training programs via Facebook and Instagram. Connect with us at @northsideworks on both platforms.

Career chats — Call or email us to talk about your needs. We’ll point you in the right direction! Call Quinn Kirby at (412) 231-6500 or email quinn@northsidechamberofcommerce.com.

Northside dining and culture guide

In 2024, you’ll be seeing more activity from the chamber that promotes the member companies and organizations that are in the dining and culture space. There’s so much to enjoy on the Northside, and the chamber wants to help its residents and employees and visitors know about it more!

One piece that we’ll be distributing to people and events throughout the year is our “Northside Dining and Culture Guide. An initial version is available by scanning the QR code or visiting bit.ly/northside-dining- culture.
