Hey all,
I'm really thinking about moving to a new city if I can land a great job there that will help me move up the career ladder. I'm 27 years old with no baggage and pretty mobile. I've had a handful of interviews from local firms (within 50 miles or so). However, I've been really thinking of applying to jobs in my field in other cities. I've always thought that every region of the U.S. has its own unique culture to offer and always wanted to explore some of them. I see this as being a win/win situation if I can land a better ranking position in a new city (especially if it's a city with lower cost of living). Worst case scenario is if I don't really like the city, I can always look for another job in a different city down the line.
I'd greatly appreciate some opinions from those who's done this before, or anyone else thinking or in the process of doing so.
Thanks in advance, gents!
