I agree, unemployed for 8 months. Every position I apply for I get no response, or they have chosen another. And, no interview even offered.
I have been in the fraud/security business for over 16 years. You would think I would be qualified for something? I am not a security guard, but in management!!!

They say Nebraska has the lowest unemployment in the country. 4.4% looks good on paper but I guess those numbers really mean nothing. It appears the whole country sucks. Hurry up mutt

Omaha is living in a fantasy world.They like to candy coat all their low employment and cost of living.When all they are really doing in raping us with properity tax and un-employment.In Califorina they have prop. 13 they never rease your taxes they stay the same as the day you bought it.And another thing these Omahaians can't drive worth a darn have almost been killed several times.Feel much safer driving in California.at least in Cali. everyone aint B.S. "n" on the cell phone instead of paying attention to the road!!!

I agree with most of the comments that Omaha is not a very easy place to get a job. Also, once you get a job, there always seems to be someone there making things difficult for you. I have lived here for about 15 years and because of the bad economy everywhere my family and I are unable to leave at this time. To sum it up, I find Omaha to be a very difficult and unfriendly place to live!

Really? in Omaha, Nebraska

All you people whining about Omaha should probably go ahead and leave... finding a job here is easy... keeping a job is more difficult--especially if you're unprofessional and won't show up and do what you're told. In reality, you'll have a hard time finding and keeping a job anywhere

Dear Really? Your response is exactly what makes this city difficult. This forum was very encouraging to me because I felt like I wasn't alone. It is very difficult to get a job right here right now, especially if you are an experienced professional. I know of several professional people who are out of work and struggling right now. No one is "whining" as you stated, they are just expressing their opinions. Most of us need compassion not criticism.

Really or Reality? in Evergreen, Colorado

19 months ago

I lived in Omaha 95-05, college educated, tax paying homeowner, young professional. I spent most of 05 looking for a job, before the economy even went south, and never did find one, at least one that would pay a mortgage. Out of frustration I applied for 1 job in Denver and got it. I now live in Denver and am still working at the same job. So "really" what do you do that's so easy?
