This is an array of 2 unitialised pointers, that never get initialised.
You want

char randname[2]; /* 2 bytes of storage for writing a letter and a NULL-byte */

>   int  randRate[8];

char randRate[3];   /* you're writing a string representation of an int,
                       so you need a string / array of chars to write it
                       to - 3 bytes for two digits and NULL-byte*/

>   char *randJob[11];

char randJob[11];             /* 11 bytes of storage */
