I am sorry for the problems you and your husband have had looking for a job in Raleigh. Frankly, if you go to any major business magazine, this area is one of the best places in the country to live, find a job, and excel. There are some of the best schools and higher education centers in this area. Yes, it doesn't hurt to be a doctor or nurse in this area; there are some outstanding hospitals in this area. But many of my clients are lawyers, self-made business owners, teachers, IT professionals, and gov't officials.

The water shortage was really no one's fault, Such things happen when it doesn't rain. And North Carolina does have higher prices in gasoline. This is due to the fact that our gas taxes are higher since, after Texas, this state has the most miles of roads in the country. The taxes are used to fund DOT and the construction and fixing of roads in this state.

Unfortunately, no one is finding a job right now. The unemployment rate for the country is the highest in 24 years. Don't blame Raleigh; this problem is everywhere. I have lived in Raleigh for 6 years and my fiancee and I have finally found a city that is not too big and not too small where we can finally create a good life for ourselves.

I have my BS in business management, minor in business analysis and am currently taking online classes for my MBA. I am an accountant now but am seeking a job in Raleigh. I would like to move down asap but I am looking for companies in some sort of finance or executive position. Is there any companies that anyone could recommend to me?

I have a BS in marketing, AS in horticulture, recent graduate with experience in nursery production. I am looking for a job, maybe inside sales?, where I can utilize both degrees, in the green industry. Any suggestions where to start, recruiters, etc.? Thanks.

i'm currently researching jobs in the Raleigh/Durham area and it's what u make of it.i see opportunities posted online,but how they respond to as far as a timely mannere could be another story.

yeah I have seen a lot of jobs and have had some feedback but nothing permanent or full time. I'm going down in 2 months so hopefully that may help a little more.

I am interested in relocating to Raleigh and would like some help. I have worked in the healthcare field, both non-profit and for profit for approximately eight years as a HR Generalist. I would like to get a position in the same field, what employers are my best bet? I am aware that companies often do not consider out of state people as they think they would have to pay for relocation, I am fully prepared to pay for my own relocation.

I am interested in moving to the Raleigh-Durham area - and have been trying for years. There doesn't seem to be many jobs hiring in the area, or anywhere for that matter. I have a friend who lives there with about 10 years of Biotech/Project Management experience who's been out of work for about a year now! I currently live in Maryland and was recently laid off from my job (4 months ago) as well - things are only slightly better up here. I have a bachelors in Business Admin with a minor in Accounting along w/2-5 yrs exp in the financial industry. I know Charlotte is the financial center of the area, but I LOVE Raleigh! Besides, I'm not married to the idea of staying in the finance industry - thus the business degree. If anyone has any info on companies that may be hiring (and paying a livable salary) I'd greatly appreciate it. I've networked with several people and feel like I've looked everywhere. I can barely get a return call.

I moved here in December, I have a BA in sociology, with other experience such as customer service and administrative, and haven't been able to find a job. I've applied to hundreds of jobs online. I moved here from NJ because I wanted to get out of the city. I thought this would be a good place, but job wise it's really horrible right now. If anyone know of any places hiring please let me know.

Matt,

Very nicely said. If you don't mind me asking, what line of work are you in?

I agree with just about everything you have stated Matt with
the exception of one major point you made.The fact that according to a major business magazine, this area is one of the best places in the country to live, find a job and excel.But,that actually was and is the problem in Raleigh.
I"ve lived here 41 years and,I realize that with people
come industry or visa versa which creates jobs and housing.
Working in the Mortgage industry I check peoples debt to
income ratios, These same equative ratios hold true to jobs that
are available to the percentage of people moving here.The point
here is, these same magazines are and have created a royal mess
for Raleigh and, most of us knew it was coming.

Hi Diana~Working in the mortgage industry, why do you not feel that creating jobs and housing is a good thing, is it that there are not enough jobs and/or housing available? Do you mean when you say the magazines have "created a royal mess" that they have raised expectations of income too high, or that there are not enough jobs for all the people who want to relocate? I am truly wanting your honest opinion, respectfully. Thank you.

Chi,It's not that I feel that creating jobs and housing is not a good thing. The point I was trying to make is that because Fortune magazine, among others, have listed Raleigh and Cary in the top 10 places to live in the country, many many people moved here years ago. That was all fine; however, in today's economy there are no jobs, there are massive layoffs, etc. These magazines continued to put us up there near the top, but while Raleigh may literally be a great place to live, people that don't live here shouldn't consider a move to this area thinking they will get a great job. Our unemployment rate is one of the highest in the nation and it is rising. So, to answer your question: there are NO jobs here for people looking to relocate here. It's also fairly expensive.

Hello! I am a licensed financial services professional (series 7 & 63 in good standing) with the intention of relocating to Raleigh within the next few months. I have tried working with recruiters and applying directly to financial institutions in the area without any luck. I am NOT asking for any relocation assistance.

If anyone could help me, I would appreciate it. My wife and I have thought about moving to the area with the thought my chances of gaining employment will improve if I live in the area. My wife is a nurse and should not have any trouble finding employment.

Maybe if you took off the CAPS LOCK when you fill out job applications, you'd find a job faster. just saying. I found a job BEFORE I moved here almost two years ago. 1 day after moving I was hired. It's about realistic expectations and not blaming your problems on everyone but yourself.
