Yet Another Tech Considering A Move To the Triangl
-
9/3/2006
Hi. I'm considering moving to the Raleigh area because I have been told time and again that there is a strong and growing job market in Information Technology there. I currently live in Central Florida and the tech job market here is a joke. The cost of living continues to climb along with the house prices and the cost of insurance due to the recent barrage of hurricanes over the past few years. The only thing that never seems to go up is our salaries here so it's time for me to leave.
I am a 29 year old single biracial female with a liberal mindset and an advanced degree in Computer Information Systems. I am looking for a place with a diverse population, with Museums and live music on a regular basis, and it must be near good universities as I intend to get my PhD in the future. I was born and raised in NYC so I am used to having a lot of activities, cultural, and educational resources at my fingertips. I also lived in Central Pennsylvania for a few years but left because I felt a great deal of hostility towards me because of my color.
I would like an honest opinion about the NC Triangle area from someone who works in Information Technology about the job market and the requirements I have listed above.
