After College?

<p>What city are you going to move after college? What kind of job are you going to have?</p>

<p>Back with youre parents? </p>

<p>I was just curious... Sorry if this is in the wrong place.</p>

<p>there should be an after college life thread :P.</p>

<p>Basically where someone gets a job offer is where they generally move, that is why I went down to PHX for a year, then its back home to look for work in Cleveland, maybe Columbus or Toledo too.</p>

<p>Yeah there should be an After College thread. Haha.</p>

<p>How is Phoenix for someone who just graudated college? Is it really that dangerous as everyone says? Is the city bustling with pedestrians or is it a car city?</p>

<p>Phoenix is very much a car city. They are putting in a light rail, but everyone down here has a car. There are almost too many cars. Not to dangerous from what I have seen. Actually pretty safe, then again I don't venture too far beyond Tempe/Phoenix/Scottsdale area.</p>

<p>I'd actually like to move back to India/pakistan for a couple of years and work there as a Doc (not permanently, but just for a couple of years), so i guess New Delhi or Peshawar or w/e</p>

<p>I'd like to work in a city for a professional sports team in baseball or football...Marketing or Community Relations...prefer St Louis (go Cards :) ). Ideally I'd live in a rural area and commute...born and raised in the country but want to work in the city but not live there. Other places I could see myself are Texas (any of the big cities), Chicago, Denver, Cinci/Cleveland, and some others. Or maybe work for a Div I school in the athletic dept, since I work in one right now for a parttime internship...who knows. Things will probably change by the time May 2010 rolls around</p>

<p>I plan to do auditions for amusement parks and cruise ships during my senior year, and if I get one of those, then I would live where the job is. If I don't get anything set by the time I graduate, I plan to move to NYC and audition for plays or try to get work as a costumer. And if nothing works out, then I'm not sure yet where I'll go. Somewhere cheaper where I can find work.</p>

<p>Plan to move to NYC as an ibanker.</p>

<p>^^you and 1/2 the Business Major forum poster ;)</p>

<p>At least I have set goals for my life unlike most of the people I know.</p>

<p>It wasn't a slam, just an observation. It's good to know what you want in life.</p>

<p>DC perhaps? Virginia? North Carolina? Those are probably the most likely at this point, but I'd love to live in Rome or Venice for a while. I definetely know I won't be going back home, home really doesn't do anything for me anymore, especially if my family is elsewhere...</p>

<p>I plan to start looking for jobs my senior year and take almost anything I'm offered if it's a decent salary and wouldn't require me to live IN a huge city. I don't like the traffic and pollution. I'd love to move somewhere different (climate, people) than I have grown up with, since it will probably only be a few years at the first job until I find something I really want.</p>

<p>If I don't find a job right away, I would probably move back home as my school isn't far from home, and either look more for jobs or consider grad school.</p>

<p>I would love to in the DC area, so there, Maryland, Virginia...somewhere around there. But in reality, at least right after college, I'll take living wherever I can find a job, or move back in with my parents for awhile. I'm not too idealistic.</p>

<p>I am most likely going to leave Michigan, since I highly doubt any jobs will be available after I graduate thanks to the people who voted for our governor to serve a second term.</p>

<p>^^Lol. What city though?</p>

<p>After I graduate, I am going to go back home and get foot surgery. Whoohoo. I will probably be stuck there for a while until I find a job because I don't think I can stand another summer in my apartment. Not entirely sure where exactly I'm going to look for jobs, but I'm thinking I should probably move to a lower-cost area of the country because around here, I don't think I'd make enough to be able to live alone in a nice apartment and actually save any sort of money.</p>

<p>My parents apparently think that I'm going to come home and be there for about a year, looking for jobs. They also apparently think that I'm either going to somehow magically find a job in the same county (despite the fact that there really aren't any companies I could actually work for there), or want to do a 2-hour commute, one way, to get to a job in a different area while living at home to 'save money'. I'd prefer to save my sanity, thanks.</p>

<p>Lol. </p>

<p>If youre looking for cheap places. You can try: Charolette, Raleigh, Phoenix, Tuscan, Portland, Denver.</p>

<p>I would love to live in San Francisco or Chicago...and work as a reporter for a big newspaper. But I'm still in HS, so I know nothing ;).</p>

<p>Portland is pretty sweet, too...and it's cheaper there. That's another city it would be cool to work in.</p>
