Okay, I've been out of work for a little over a year. Husband's company is likely going under once the govt contracts are getting cut off sometime in 2011 (already had two sets of layoffs). I've been applying to a lot of jobs but seem to be no closer to an opportunity now then a year ago. Where are the hot spots (relatively of course) for jobs.
Specifically mechanical engineering jobs for those with <5 years experience (and not HVAC). We hate DC and want to move, which is fine because its primarily a software/electrical area. But I'm guessing I need to expand my original search locations.
I've been looking at Colorado, Boston, and Seattle as places we would enjoy living. But any other ideas? I know its petty but I refuse to live in Texas or the Gulf Coast because I know that I wouldn't be happy there long term. What other major cities should I be looking at?
