As part of WBEZ's Hard Working series, business and economy reporter Adriene Hill organized this coffee house at the Jane Addams Hull-House Museum to help start a multi-media conversation on jobs and joblessness.

Using the radio, the internet, and face-to-face conversations, WBEZ is encouraging conversations about work and unemployment, and following job seekers through the ins and outs of the job hunt.  The project aims to find out who’s hiring and who’s firing, and wants to talk about what “work” means to people around the region.

Recorded Wednesday, March 11, 2009 at Jane Addams Hull-House Museum.
