New York 7. Ohio We have a guest column this week from Las Vegas resident Eric Simandl about his experiences and advice for those considering that move to Las Vegas. Good jobs are tough to get for any newcomer, even for experienced talented intelligent people like you and us. They say some 6,000 people move here each month. Because Las Vegas is and always has been such a transient area, employers are very leery of newcomers.
People move here, give it a couple months, and bail.
Employers want stability. Best bet is to register with every temp agency you can find, take every temp assignment you get and try to parlay it into a permanent position. Anyway, make sure you've got enough money put away to ride it out on temp jobs until you get a decent position. May take a while. When you arrive here without a job, it's not easy to get a decent place to live.
