Nesters who have relocated to NC. Any tips?
DH and I would love to relocate to NC from CT. Its the whole finding a job thing that is tough (I know, I know the economy.)
I'm a SAHM, DH is a finance guy, with an MBA, has worked in a big pharmaceutical for the past 5 years. Everyone says NC would be a great place for us, but landing that job is seems impossible. Any tips for the local market? Headhunters? Companies that are hiring in health sciences/pharma?
Any info would so very appreciated.
Re: Nesters who have relocated to NC. Any tips?
Thanks for the insight. We are facing the cutbacks up here too. DH's company is laying off thousands and while he's safe for right now it feels a little like the writing is on the wall. We probably will hang tight and see how we weather all of this, but we're definitely putting our ear to the ground for other opportunities.
Atlanta would be a hard sell to DH. We'd love to move somewhere warmer (after just having a grueling winter) but Atlanta would be a bit too far to the other end of the spectrum.
We are also in the process of relocating to NC due to DH's job. When he found out his job was not stable, he immediately started looking for something in either Charlotte or the RTP. He ended up finding a job in Charlotte in just a few weeks and moved down there in January. I, however, am having a really hard time finding something.
I would recommend looking on indeed.com for jobs. If you think you are going to have to move soon, I'd start de-junking to get rid of or sell whatever is not worth moving.
