Chicago Business Environment

Hey y’all I’m considering attending school at UIUC for their MSF program. While not the greatest school, I am interested in their proximity to Chicago and was wondering if any residents from their would be able to speak to the job market/environment in the area. For context, I’m in the Southwest and it’s pretty dead out here finance wise. Very few businesses are headquartered here and any investments related job is for FA roles or call centers.
