Hi,\n\nThe most important thing to remember about job searches is that you should use a combination of methods regardless of your location.\n\n    Networking - Register at your local Unemployment Office (you don't need to be on unemployment to register for their assistance). They often will have networking groups on a regular basis. They also are a good source for the jobs that never show up in the paper or online.\n\n    Check your local paper -- In many cases the paper's classified are now online.\n\n    Search Smart Online -- If you don't have a lot of time, spend most of your time at sites that aggregate the job feeds from several job search engines. Prominently these include indeed.com and thingamajob.com.\n\n    Organization -- I am the lead developer of a free online application that allows you to track your ads, jobs you apply for, send or print mail merged correspondence, and track your job search history. This site is jobsearchlog.com \n\nGood Luck,\n\nMichael

There are buses that run to Downingtown from Coatesville, even to West Chester, and the Wawa Food Markets along highway thirty are usually hiring, especially if you're still in high school. Also, the Daily Local News has their classified section--perhaps that would be a good place to start. \n\nHappy Hunting!

As a college student, try the student union, the school career center, or the local job agencies (check the yellow pages).\n\nHouston is a big city, and you got plenty of options there.

Go on any job search engine and put in electrical engineer and see what companies are hiring in the USA.  You can go to the electrical Engineer Association and see who is hiring too

All you need to do is contact your local electrical union. You will have to pay dues and attend meetings, but you will never have to worry about a job. Ever. Unions are the backbone of America, Good luck.

It really depends on what you're looking for.  There are four counties surrounding Philadelphia plus New Jersey across the river.  \n\n1. Delaware County: Just south of the city.  Has the best deals on houses of the four counties.  A 3 bedroom single can be found for under $200K.  Very accessible to center city via the SEPTA regional rail.  Some parts are just a 20 minute drive to Center City Philadelphia.  Good schools and okay taxes.  Some of the safer/affordable areas that I'm familiar with are Norwood, Glenolden, Brookhaven, Drexel Hill, Aldan, Aston.  Avoid Chester, Morton, Darby, Essington and some parts of Landsdowne. There's a slightly higher concentration of people per square mile in DelCo but I've found neighborhoods to be much more close knit because of this.  We bought a home in Delaware County after moving from Philadelphia.  We love it!  \n\n2. Bucks County: This is north of the city and pretty expensive.  You'll have trouble finding a good home for under $300K.  However, it's very spread out and safe.  Doylestown is still within commuting distance of Center City and a nice area.  So is Feasterville, Trevose, Bensalem and those parts of lower Bucks County.  I would avoid Bristol.\n\n3. Montgomery County: I think I heard this is the richest county in the state.  It's just west of Philadelphia.  I don't know too much about it but have heard that East and West Norriton are nice affordable areas.  Avoid Norristown though.\n\n4. Chester County: I know even less about this one.  Sorry. :-(\n\nIf you go over to New Jersey you'll be paying $3 in tolls to come to Philly.  But I know there are some good deals over there.  You might want to post a seperate question about that and see who answers.  Also, craigslist discussion forums were helpful to me when I was searching for a home/area to move to.\n\nGood luck!

I'd highly suggest looking in your local Yellow PAges and finding your IBEW local. I'm not sure of the length of apprenticeship there, but it's only four years in Virginia and when you're done you're making almost $24.00 an hour, with free health and vision insurance, plus a retirement program. If you're not inclined to unions, there are plenty of non-union shops who will train and employ you as an electrician. I do know that you recieve a degree if you go the union route. I suggest checking your local community colleges for a two year electrical engineering degree as well.
