If it's a job your looking for, Hampton Roads has it!!!

Greetings from Virginia Beach!

As the sun hits the horizon, I ask myself what makes living in this area so great?  I mean, why have I truly endured the last 12 years in this area.  Being a transplant like 80% of the people here, it has to be something that keeps us all tied to the Hampton Roads area. Having hailed from the hustle and bustle of the Big Apple (Brooklyn to be exact), I love the laid back quality of life that I have found in Virginia Beach and the 7 cities area.  Boasting some of the nations best beaches, a local real estate market that is still active, home to much of the nations military and great schools, the prospect of job availability would likely round out the group.

Currently the City of Norfolk is actively hiring 10 Managers due to recent retirements.  These jobs command great salaries from $57,000 to $149,000.  Additionally there are jobs in countless other professions ie., administrative, law enforcement, utilities, etc.  Virginia Beach, Suffolk, and Chesapeake all have numerous positions that pay well and offer great benefits and opportunity for advancement.  A list of each city's website is provided below.

So YOU CAN have it all:  Pristine beaches, great entertainment, award winning schools and a stable job to round the day off!

I'm going to have a nice ice tea on the lanai! Toddles!

Asiyah- Great blog with wonderful info.  I've loved Virginia ever since a vacation as a child.  It always seemed like a perfect place to live- you still get the seasons, but not harsh winters.  I never got the chance to live there, but who knows!!
