Utah Jobs List started out as a passion-project when the COVID-19 pandemic started taking it's toll on thousands of Utahans that we're getting laid off in early 2020.  Trying to do something, anything, I started collecting email addresses of people who were let go and, poorly, and in a very clunky manner, tried to get the word out about as many Utah professional and technical jobs as I could.

Because of the sheer scope of the need and the lack of great job opportunities and that everything was so manual, I am sad to say I mothballed the project in the summer of 2020 with a hope to try and revive the list if I could someday.

Relaunching over Thanksgiving 2020, but reborn as a job listing site where applicants and employers can freely connect, and this is key, without needing me as an intermediary, I am very excited for what Utah Jobs List might become someday.

I have created this for the people of Utah, where I now live and have raised my family.  I love this place and the beauty here, but I love the people more.  I hope Utah Jobs List can help strengthen the economy through connecting employers and the people who help them grow in a modest and humble way.

Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions about the List. robert at <a href="http://connectedwell.com">connectedwell.com</a>

Managing a workforce is no easy task.  Through SOS Technical, I am providing valuable help and consultation to local business-owners, Technical Managers, CTOs and CIOs.

Our relationship model allows me to partner with companies--not just recruit for them.
