the hints on looking for an out of state job. I have been working on this past several months with 0 results, but seeing that I need to change several things in my approach. Thanks again! I am thinking of moving to either Florida or California from NY. I used to live in Florida. I applied for a few jobs in California and I got 2 phone interviews for those jobs, but it didn't go further than that. I just got an email about a Florida job where they might be interested. I think I'll probably end up saving up for another year and then quit my present job (it's horrible, but pays pretty well) and just move without having a job lined up (probably back to Florida and if that doesn't pan out, I'll leave enough money to either return to NY or move elsewhere).
