Advice for commodity trader/merchant pls

I'm currently a commodity merchant/trader for a big grain co (ADM, Cargill, or Bunge) however I'm trying to relocate to Chicago land area. However, the job search is going extremely slow. Any advice is welcome. I have a yr of grad school under my belt in Financial Markets and 5 yrs experience in the commodity trading/merchandising world. Please offer advice...
