Considering Locating

I don't believe northern NV (Reno, Carson City) has the same economic impact and poor employment opportunities. On the other hand, it's not the most exciting place to live.

How easily you are able to find jobs may depend a lot on your specialty and experience.

My husband and I are relocating to Las Vegas, and we were both lucky enough to have verbal job offers within a few days of submitting our resumes. The "official" offer came a few days after that, when HR and all its ducks in a row.

I was completely surprised at how fast everything came together, since I'd read a lot on these boards about how slowly the wheels of HR can grind. I was fully expecting it to take several weeks.

Our temporary NV licenses came in within about 2 weeks. We just have to get the fingerprint cards in and done and we should be good to go with our permanent licenses.

Good luck!
