Companies to work for in Atlanta?
I want to move to Atlanta. I currently live in a town about 2 hours away. I have been applying for jobs for the past year and no luck. I get an interview, but not a job. Where should I apply..and any good interviewing tips for getting into Atlanta would also be appreciated!

If you are waiting to move until you have a job, I would suggest moving first and finding a job once you are there. That may even be what is holding you back. They are more likely to hire someone with a local address (who can start immediately if needed) than someone who will need to relocate before starting work. Once you are there you could just start with the lowest cost place that suits your needs and find one of the many "throw-away" jobs until you find a good permanent job. Then once you have a good job, you can find a better place to live. This would be my personal suggestion if I were in your shoes. As for companies, theres so many, but a good bet is to check down with Delta and look at airport jobs. I worked in the travel and airline industry when I was in Atlanta. Check with Delta Global Services/Delta Staffing Services too. Also look with temp to hire places....thats a very good way to start out.

Even though it isn't fair, a lot of people still get jobs from people that they know, so you might need to at least spend more time in or (as another answerer suggested) move to atlanta. Then make finding a job your full time job, including networking-- so, going to social events, talking to strangers, volunteering, going to new churches, any place where you meet new people, make new acquaintances, and can mention that you're looking for work.

I own a company in Atlanta and we are looking for 3 positions. One is a Telemarketing Merchant Representative which can be done from home, so you can live anywhere. One is an Outside Sales Merchant Rep. And the other is a District Manager to supervise 9 Merchant Reps. We're a new company, but we're doing well and are excited about the future. Here are two links to look at if you are interested. Must be 18, legally able to work in the US, organized and articulate. http://www.posttojobs.com/index.php?page=out&id=5391 http://www.countymerchant.com/positionavailable.html
