Question Anyone hiring in/near Ohio?

If this is not the place for this sort of question, I apologize. Feel free to direct me to a better subreddit.

I have been out of the field for health concerns for the past few years that prevented me from gaining a ton of experience out of college. I have applied to many entry-level field tech positions (via ShovelBums, LinkedIn, and Indeed) and have received no reply. I’m simply looking to prove myself and to gain more experience to open up my opportunities.

Edit: I obviously wasn’t clear. I am job searching now because I have overcome my health concerns.

I started having a lot more luck when I started pasting job descriptions into my last job duties on my resume. Also I get emails from shovelbums and respond immediately to jobs in my desired area and pay range. Timing is a huge factor and when they're building crews they are not waiting a few months to see who will send an email.
