(English) The “Where” Factor

For a new graduate, deciding where to live requires a great deal of thought and consideration. Although job opportunities may seem to be the most important factor to consider, in reality there is so much more. As you choose the community you want to live in, you need to be thinking about the lifestyle you want, proximity to family and friends, access to arts and entertainment, a feeling of belonging and a sense of place. You need to think beyond the immediate job opportunity and determine whether the location really appeals to you. Does this move to a different city hold out the promise for personal growth, development and enjoyment

    I recently moved to a new city. I could say it was for work, but I didn’t have any real contacts or interviews lined up when I arrived. It’s all worked out, as I’m employed, but employment wasn’t what I used as the basis for my move.
    I’m glad the article lists other motivations. I knew I couldn’t live in Yellowknife and Toronto’s air doesn’t agree with my lungs. So I found a small city with a thriving artistic community and went from there. I’d rather live somewhere I want to live, than live somewhere I hate just for the job!
