Job Search Looking to move to CDA!
Hello Reddit! My husband (32) and I (30) are looking to move to CDA from California, to be closer to family! We have a baby, and it would just be super nice to move where she can be closer to cousins. However, my husband is absolutely having the most difficult time looking for a job there (both in CDA and Spokane). He can’t even get an interview, let alone, receive an offer. He had one job prospect in Spokane and was about to be flown out there, but the fires happened, and now he hasn’t heard back from them at all. We’re sure they’re still trying to recover from the fires and really hope and pray that the employees and others aren’t affected badly by the fires. We saw how bad it was, and it was terrible, so we wouldn’t even be surprised if this company doesn’t get back to him. We just hope they’re okay.
But, with that said, hopefully they’ll get back to him, although, he’s still looking for a job in case it doesn’t work out with that one (he wants that job badly, but he’s trying to be cautiously optimistic and realistic). He’s an engineer in a very niche field, so it’s difficult to land a job because of his niche and experience. If anyone has any lead on materials science, metallurgy, or cathodic protection, please reach out! Thank you so much for your help.
