I'm relocating to atlanta in 3 months...HELP!!!!?

Question

I will likely relocate with my current employer here in indiana. Meanwhile I would like to pursue a better job in atlanta. My degree is in progess (grad next year). I realize without my degree finding quality employment will be difficult anywhere. Any recommendations on where to find a first shift FT job??? Other than the local links, I'm seeking companies. (customer svc./clerical/professional)

Answer 1

The best place to find jobs is the print edition of the Atlanta Journal Constitution. Many libraries do get papers from other cities but if yours doesn't and you don't want to subscribe the online version is a bit out of date but can be found at http:www.ajc.com.The GA dept of labor jobs available listings are at http://www.dol.state.ga.us/js/job_info_s...  there are a number of customer service and clericaljobs listed there now,   You will also find a number of clerical and customer service related jobs open with the state of GA.  The site to find those is http://www.thejobsite.org.   I can't predict what may be available in 3 months especially in a job market that is getting very tight but most of the localhospitals need clerical staff often.  You can do a search for their web sites for pay and benefits.   Another possibility is to have a second job or home business that you can start there and move with you,   One possibility on that seems to go very well in Atlanta is http://www.prepaidlegal.com/hub/caringha... know a number of people who are maki9ng good money working wioth that co and like the freedom and flexibility.  Because the job market is tight and gas prices are high you may want to hold on to what you have available with your present employer or combine it with something else till after elections/innauguration. You know of course that most recently hired is first to go in most cases and many companies are laying off and cutting back.   Commuting in Atlanta is horrible so figure out where you will be working and living with the job transfer and look in that area and think about the possiblities of using MARTA the public transit system.
