Apply online.  There are tons of websites you can use.  First off, you can go to Yahoo Hotjobs.  Then, there's Monster.com and careerbuilder.com.  Good Luck!

I live in Colorado to and my husband can't find a job either.  Piston he asked a simple question you don't need to get rude about it.  Hopefully someone can answer your question and be nice about it.

2 things.... first.... http://www.kbrjobs.com is where everyone is supposed to start.  Fill out your online application and resume.\n\nSecond... if you are not called right away... take a trip to Houston on one of their "Open House" days.  Make sure all of your ducks are in a row.  I came from Chicagoland and when they were done with the presentation, they asked who came from over 200 miles.  Those of us that came from over 200 miles were given interviews.  This was well over a year ago and some things have changed, but showing your motivation for the job can't hurt.  Grabbing a pair and heading to Houston from Chicagoland was the smartest thing I've done in a few years.  I got the job and since have received a promotion.\n\nGood luck.

Any big city...like New York city NY, San Diego Ca, Los Angeles Ca, Fort Worth Tx, Dallas Tx....etc. I would stay away from Kentucky, West Virginia, Virginia and many parts of Tennessee, North & South Carolinia. Mississippi would be a great place to go, but it's a poor state in the sense of finding good jobs there.

You're looking for work at the wrong companies. Come to the US. Almost every job posting requires a college education if you want a well-paying job.

I'm from California so it maybe a bit different.  I got laid off a few months ago and I claimed unemployment.  Just go to your Government website (www.MI.gov) and fill out the claim. You should be good to go.  Good Luck

Why go overseas?  There is a ton of work right here in the US.  Florida, California, Georgia.

Have you ever thought about the Midwest?  I'd go western Illinois in some of the smallish university town.  That way there will still be jobs and plenty of housing available.  Good luck!

There are office jobs all across the country.  Keep trying.  Another question to ask yourself is do you have to move to Pittsburgh or is it more important just to get out of the area that you are in.  Maybe if you broaden your search area it will become a little easier.

Decide where you want to live.  It might be easier to transition into a new country if you already have friends or family here that can help you get familiar with the area.\n\nI'm assuming you have all the stuff you need to be legitimately able to work in this country.  I don't know what is required for that, and I don't think that you should try to sneak in.  This doesn't make you very popular.\n\nOnce you are here, look for work.  For example, I live in a teeny little town with no traffic lights.  i go to yp.yahoo.com, and set my location to this town.  then i find the listings for \n\nTop > Other Professional Services > Design > Graphic Design \n\nwithin 30 minutes of this little town there are 15 businesses that I could call and introduce myself, and ask "Are you hiring?" or some such thing.  It is just a phone call, so this is not much time for you - after all, you are planning a plane trip from India, and that takes quite a bit of time, and it's not like you'll have a job yet, so you can do this.\n\nThe next day, think to yourself "what businesses need a graphic designer that aren't necessarily graphic designing businesses?"  advertising comes to mind, so you can repeat this process for any business that comes to mind.\n\nIf that doesn't work, you can always look at the help wanted ads.\n\nGOOD LUCK!

look for a job with a multi-national corp where you live now,  and ask to be transferred to a USA office? Hotels are good for that. Hyatt, etc.

Everything I've read and heard says that you actually have to move first, then look for a job. Employers see that out of town address and are less inclined to want to handle the expense and inconvenience of scheduling interviews and relocation costs. Also, no matter how many jobs the job boards advertise, many are filled by the time they receive your resume. Here's my suggestions:\n\n1. If you know someone, be it close friend or relative or former college roommate that already lives down there, use their address on your resume and cover letter. Use a service that allows you to have voicemail with a Georgia area code.\n2. Temp or sub after you quit so that you have enough earnings to apply for Georgia unemployment. You may or not be eligible for unemployment from the job you quit because it depends on why you're resigning/relocating. Check if CA's unemployment application is online and find out valid reasons for receiving unemployment if you resign.\n3. Whatever jobs strike your fancy that you do see on the job boards, take the time to call both the HR person to see if it's been filled already and, if not, find out who is the actual supervisor and have a conversation with them. That saves so much time and money.\n4. Take advantage of cheap airfare and schedule some time to actually go to Georgia. First stop should be temp agencies in your field so you can both get your feet wet and have some income while you seek full-time employment. Next stop should be job fairs because then you can see several employers at once.\n5. In the interim, find out about legit work from home opportunities you can engage in. The advantage of these is that they, unlike some temp jobs, are mobile, provide income and the flexibility you need to go job hunting.\n6. Check w/ Georgia's Dept. of Labor to find out the One Stop Career Center near where you are trying to move.\n7. Check w/ college's career centers. In addition to colleges themselves being a potential employer, they have career centers that specialize in helping find jobs after graduation. Many of these people came from other states and countries and decided to make Georgia their home. Plus, colleges are very well-connected with local businesses.\n8. Join some message boards that are comprised of people from Georgia. This can include your college or other alumni boards. Ask them directly what jobs are available at their organizations. They would be the best leads on actual vacancies. Plus, you'll feel like you already have people you know before you get down there.\n9. If you feel comfortable using the services of headhunters, that may help. In my experience, though, they're usually looking for people at the executive level and their services cost.\n\nIt's a lot to do, but it is much more of a challenge to look for something out of state than in your own area. Good luck and keep your head up!

You may want to try with companies that employ world wide or work world wide. There are some transnational companies Ex. General Motors, Coca-Cola (and not only US companies) that operates world wide, once there you may have more chances to move around different countries. Other companies such as airlines, maritime transportation and cruises are other options, also engineering companies (oil and mining and related). These companies always search for new people, professionals and non-professionals. If you don't have experience, look for entry level positions where experience is not required. World class companies usually have programs to develop employees.

I just did a quick search on Indeed.com, an "aggregator" site which pulls jobs off the big sites like Monster, HotJobs, and CareerBuilder as well as newspaper classifieds, smaller job sites, and employer sites.\n\nAnd the Indeed.com results looked pretty promising to me -\nAll jobs in Sheboygan, WI - 3,823 listed\nCustomer service jobs in Sheboygan - 706 listed\nDispatcher jobs in Sheboygan - 1 listed\n\nAnd, of course, those are just the jobs that are posted, which is supposed to be only 15% to 20% of all the opportunities available at any given point in time.\n\nAnd, I also checked Job-Hunt.org, which lists thousands of employers, job search, and career resources by state.  It has nearly 100 listings for Wisconsin, and 3 employers are listed specifically in Sheboygan or Sheboygan Falls.\n\nThere must be other potential employers in nearby towns, but I didn't know the names to use for searching.\n\nLooks pretty promising to me, although no one gets any guarantees.  I bet once you start meeting people (church, your kids' schools, grocery store, beauty salon, gym, etc.), you'll discover other opportunities.  If there's a Welcome Wagon or Newcomers Club, get involved in that, too.\n\nGood luck!
