I was in your shoes last year. Looking for the perfect position in Seattle where a short ferry ride was an easy commute. After about 4 months of short interviews, and 100's of calls, I stopped looking for the perfect job, and looked for the betterplace.
I had also heard about Texas, and had a couple of offers to work in Dallas, but mostly temp/contract work that would leave me in Texas after 2-4 years.
I instead found a group of employers who wanted me for what I had to offer, experience, in a market that is crying for our skills. The Federal Government.
I am now in the most exciting job, most challenging environment, and greatest living condition I have ever been in. The pay is not bad, but what I gain most is the feeling that this group really needed me today. I went home less richer, but a whole lot happier. I can't tell you who I work for, but where I work for is in Bahrain. An Island where in 3 short years I'll own my home in Poulsbo out right, and have employment rights to other federal workers who have stayed home.
Just a thought. www.opm.gov
