  • Layoffs Suck: Raysa Williams, 30

    Raysa Williams is a Paseo grad who studied theater and dance. She's been the victim of two layoffs in two years. She was laid off from her work as a closer for Nations Lending, a title loan company, in October 2007 but was out of work for only a month when the company suddenly offered her old job back. She took it, but in the month's span that she was out of work, she'd gone on several interviews. One was at Zep Manufacturing, where she interviewed for a job as an executive assistant. When

Six of the metro's school districts are on spr

    We've decided to let you know when we see any kind of job openings. This morning, we spotted a help-wanted sign in Town Topic's window. Town Topic is looking for a jack-of-all-trades to flip burgers, wash dishes, scrub down the place and make those amazing shakes. "I don't hire, and I don't fire," the waitress said. She just forwards the applications to the big boss. It's a minimum-wage gig, but if you're interested, they're handing out applications.

  • Now Hiring: Job fair at the Plaza Marriott Monday

    ​This is short notice, but there's still time to get your resume together. Kansas City Hires is holding a job fair at the Kansas City Marriott on the Plaza (4445 Main St.) from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.  I'd tell you what employers will be there, but the site makes you register up to see 'em (actually, I signed up once and got an error message, so you're on your own).
