- Skills for Chicago partners with 71 community organizations that refer candidates to job openings. Each partner uses a unique tracking link, which allows for the tracking of a candidate’s journey from the moment they apply. This system enables the organization to provide partners with data and status updates on their referrals. Additionally, all community partner referrals receive top priority and are automatically moved to the top of the applicant pool to be considered first.
