If the idea of ​​looking for a job in another city has already occurred to you, read our recommendations to greatly simplify the process of your out-of-town employment.

Getting mentally prepared...
… and we take the first step not for train or plane tickets, but for the Internet. We study all available information about the region where we want to go: the labor market, the cost of renting housing, salary levels, etc. We compare conditions in different regions and choose the most suitable ones.

If you are a citizen not of Russia, but of another country, keep in mind: Russian employers consider resumes of candidates from neighboring countries quite carefully, but are not always ready to accept foreign citizens for work. Some companies do not have the opportunity to provide the applicant with housing, others are not allocated quotas for attracting foreign specialists. In your case, it would be right to first find out how the issues of registration of foreign citizens in Russia are legally regulated on the official website of the FMS of Russia.

First we “move” to the resume
It’s not difficult to start looking for a job in another city if you know what “ticks” to put on your resume and what cherished words to write to the employer. For example, if you are looking for a job in several cities at once (suppose your own and some others), in the line of your resume "City of residence" indicate the city where you live now, and in the "Personal information" block in the "Moving" section, mark "Ready" and select all the cities you are ready to go to. If there are no specific preferences, only the “Ready” mark is sufficient. This will expand the circle of potential employers: resumes can be found by employers in your city and in others, where they are ready to hire non-resident candidates.

In the “Additional Information” field of your resume, you must indicate whether you are ready to take care of finding housing and registering in the city where you are going to work, or vice versa - you are looking for a job with the provision of housing. It would be useful to indicate the timing of a possible move for information to the employer.

If we go to Moscow
If, like the well-known Chekhov heroines, you are drawn to move only “To Moscow! To Moscow!”, then in the “City” field it is better to write “Moscow” right away. In this case, only metropolitan employers will see your resume in the database. But in the “Additional Information” field, it would still be nice to indicate where you live now, why you want to move, whether you are ready to take care of organizing accommodation, and when you are ready to arrive at your future job.

If we are going to work on a rotational basis
To search for a job on a rotational basis, in the resume, you need to indicate the city of your residence, the item “Ready to move” and the type of employment “on a rotational basis” (section of the resume “Wishes for work”). Other wishes - to the work schedule (for example, 30 days after 30), working conditions, etc. - Specify in the "Additional information" field.

Going towards the employer
The resume has been published, but we do not let things take their course: we are looking for vacancies in cities of interest to us on our own, responding to suitable options, and not just waiting for employers to find us themselves. Superjob has a convenient search page for this - to get the necessary selection, you need to specify the desired city, type of employment, salary, etc.

How to write a cover letter correctly
Starting communication with the employer from a cover letter, do not forget to write in it in detail and taking into account the specific vacancy about your desire to work in this particular city, in this position and in this company. If you are particularly interested in the vacancy, you can once again emphasize that you are ready to take care of your own accommodation, explain how soon you are able to start working. It does not hurt to tell in more detail about your professional experience and about your previous place of work. It must be understood that the employer is unlikely to have all the information about companies in other cities. You should not get carried away with abbreviations and names that are understandable only to local residents (WHATTOTAM&TP&TD - such a name is unlikely to say much to people from the outside). You need to clearly and clearly explain what the profile of your previous job was, what place the company occupied in the market, etc.

Be sure to write whether you are ready to come for a face-to-face interview or conduct it, for example, via Skype - help the employer to get a clearer picture of you and make a positive decision!

Arranging a remote interview
There are a lot of employers, it can be difficult and expensive for a candidate to come to another city for a conversation with each of them. Modern computer programs (such as Skype, etc.) can solve this problem. Perhaps, at first, a recruiter or an HR will be satisfied with a telephone conversation. Naturally, for a more in-depth contact, you still have to come to the employer in person.

As for the primary, then you need to prepare for it in the same way as for the usual one. For example, prepare possible questions, dress appropriately, remove foreign objects or pets from the room during a video call, ask children or other family members to leave. By the way, about counter questions to the employer. Your situation is special and requires a special approach: you definitely need to ask all the important questions to the recruiter, but try not to bring down a lot of requests and conditions on him already at the first stage of interaction.

Show advantages over local candidates
Prepare in advance the answer to the question of how you can be useful to the company, try to give the most specific and comprehensive answers at the interview. For example: “When are you ready to start work?” “As soon as I finish my business at my current location. The journey will take so much time, so in so many days I will be able to go to work.” Such an answer is good not only because you show yourself as a responsible person, but also in exact terms. The vague “well, probably in a couple of months ...” will be perceived much worse.

During the interview, you should not discuss with the recruiter (except in cases where he himself does not ask you about it) the everyday nuances of moving, telling how much the ticket costs, what you are ready to transport and how you are going to live. Provide the minimum information that is significant for the company: do you have housing in a new place, are you moving alone or with your family, etc. By and large, the employer does not care who you are and where you are from - he just needs a good employee. By requiring a special approach to yourself, you obviously lose to less picky candidates.

However, in each case, everything is decided individually, and a professional will eventually find a decent job and an adequate employer. The main thing is to go to the goal. If something does not work out, we are always ready to help each of you. Write to us through the feedback system on the site, describe your problems and wishes.

So, you have decided that it is time to leave your native land and start looking in a more promising city. What's next? And then read this article from and slowly gather your thoughts and suitcases.

Make sure you need it

Before you change your location, decide where exactly you want to go. We recommend based on the following criteria:

• Do you have friends, acquaintances or relatives in the selected city. Still, even a minimal amount of support in a new place won't hurt anyone. It is good if you have someone to turn to for help in an unfamiliar city.
• Are specialists of your profile in demand in this city? Maybe, of course, you dreamed of working at a coal mine in Kyiv, but most likely, certain difficulties will arise here.
• What prospects will open before you after the move. If in the city of N you will find plus or minus the same as at home, think carefully. Especially if in your locality you are already provided with your own housing. Moving is a responsible step, and it’s good if it turns out to be justified.

Evaluate offers on the market

in the city you are interested in. See what they offer, what salaries, conditions, requirements. Think about whether you can find housing in the right area, how much of your salary you will have to pay for rent (if necessary). Find as many options as you can to evaluate all the possibilities at once.

It's good if you know what company you want to work for. Then it is possible in all cities where its offices are located.

Perhaps at first you can, and if you and the employer fit together, then you will already make a decision to move.

Submit your resume, wait for the interview

• Be sure to indicate in which city you want to work and that you are ready to move.
• Also, tell us why you decided to take this step. Emphasize that this is a mature decision of a single-minded person.
• If possible, agree on. If there are several of them, it will be more convenient to communicate with employers so as not to go to another city for the sake of conversation.

Enlist the support of loved ones and make up your mind!

Even when you are fully prepared to move, it can be difficult at first to drop everything and leave. But if you decide - act! Especially if you found exactly what you were looking for.

It's great if your loved ones support you. If you have a family, it won't be easy for her either. But together it will be easier to survive the changes. If your family is against it, you will have to overcome this barrier. Tell them about the prospects that await you in a new place, about the opportunities that will open up for your family. Infect them with faith in yourself.

Remember the old adage: “A fish is looking for where it is deeper. Where is the man better? Look for the best and find "your"! knows that you can do anything!

The problem of finding a job is one of the most urgent for modern society. The vast majority of the population is looking for employment not because they are unemployed. Most of looking for an alternative to an existing job or looking for part-time options. As sad as it is, but Search work This is also a job that requires a lot of effort and time. If you want to find a decent job, you will have to be patient, wake up a good "advertiser" in yourself and "open your eyes and ears."

Why is this needed? With patience, everything is clear. The skills of an "advertiser" will help you to show your professional and personal qualities in the most favorable and most suitable light for a particular employer. It is not worth inventing non-existent qualities, because the interview will reveal the deception. It is only necessary to correctly describe the skills that you possess to perfection.

“Open your eyes and ears” is necessary to search for information. Talk to your friends. Often employers, having despaired of finding a sensible employee through an ad, “throw” a cry among acquaintances and relatives. So if you hint in a friendly conversation that you are thinking about changing jobs, you can get a specific address of a potential employer

How to look for a job in your city? Here are the most common options.

Most often, in search of work with a decent salary, they go to megacities. However, this option is not suitable for everyone. If, nevertheless, your city is so small or inconvenient for creating a career, then you can find a job in another city. If you are ready for moral, material difficulties in a new place, this is your employment option.

Before you start looking for a job, decide on the most preferred way to earn money. And remember, a good employee is a godsend for any employer who is trying to create the necessary conditions and retain a “valuable staff”. The Oriflame company in almost all and neighboring countries gives everyone the opportunity to work part-time in a free schedule, as well as serious work with. (free of charge) and the manager will contact and answer all your questions.

More and more applicants are attracted work in another city- In big cities, salaries are higher, and there are more career prospects. How to find a job in another city, the Country of Soviets will tell.

Motives for moving to another city may be different. Someone wants to earn more money, so working in another city is his priority goal. Some move for personal reasons (e.g. marriage). And some people just can't sit still. Most often this applies to young professionals: there is still little to keep them in their hometown, so you need to catch a chance while there is still this ease of climbing (in more strict terms,).

Whatever the reasons for moving, work in another city will not fall on you by itself. The search for a job must be approached with all responsibility, and you need to do this before you move.. Moving house in itself is a lot of stress, especially if you are not going to someone with everything ready. In addition to finding a job, you will have to look for housing, it will still take some time to get used to another city and “get on track”. Finding a job before you move will help cross at least one problem off this list.

Very often, work is located in another city through the Internet. They come to help. Do not neglect them: in large cities, recruitment managers absolutely do not shun this way of searching for applicants. Be clear about what you want from your future job. Often, when moving to another city, people grab the first job that comes across, fearing that nothing else will turn up for them. But if you want to realize yourself as a professional, be patient. Better you move a little later, but the work will be decent.

Responsibly approach the compilation. When posting a resume, clearly remember or write down exactly which sites you posted it on. Many employers are wary of applicants who need a job in another city. Therefore, it is not enough on your resume to simply indicate that you are ready to move. Clearly describe the reasons for the move (the more significant they are, the better). If you already have a place of residence, this is an additional bonus for the employer. And be aware that Most employers don't pay for interview travel..

Some job seekers get a job in another city thanks to acquaintances and friends. It's not necessarily bullshit. Often, acquaintances from another city can help you navigate in a new environment, tell you where to go first, and help weed out dubious options. Sometimes it happens that a person quits, and he is asked to find a replacement for himself. If someone you know changes jobs and it coincides with your move, why not? A recommendation from a trusted employee can play into your hands. But anyway relying solely on acquaintances, friends and relatives is not worth it- the probability of success is small.

Jobs in another city can be found with the help of intermediaries - staffing and recruiting agencies involved in . The advantage of this method is that the recruiter will definitely check whether this or that company deserves trust. However, you will have to pay for the services of an agent, and besides, it is not a fact that you will get to a highly qualified specialist.

If you are afraid that you will not be able to find a job remotely, you can go on a reconnaissance. Take a vacation and go to another city for a while - it's good if you have the opportunity to stay with friends. Perhaps this way work in another city will be easier and faster. In addition, this is a good opportunity to “rehearse” a new life without rushing into it right away, as if into a pool with your head.

Remember: the more actively you search, the faster you will find a job in another city. Your task is not just to convince a potential employer that the move will not prevent you from starting work and performing your duties on time, but also to make sure that this is not only true in words.

Moving to another city should not be combined with a change in the field of activity. So you will only double the stress and achieve nothing. New living conditions can interfere with effective work even in the old profession, what can we say about the simultaneous change of place of residence and field of activity. Therefore, it is better if work in another city matches your professional experience.

Working in another city does not always live up to expectations. Most likely, you will have to take a "step back" and start with lower position than the one you had before. Try to come to terms with it - you have to start somewhere. Salaries in a big city are usually higher than in a provincial one. But keep in mind that prices can "bite". Therefore, try to find out the prices of food, housing, transport, etc. in advance and compare them with the expected salary. Do you have enough to live?

Working in another city is like jumping into the unknown. However, if you carefully prepare the ground and approach your job search and housing responsibly, you will succeed!

So you've decided to move to another city! Whatever the reason: the search for a better life, the prevailing circumstances - it doesn’t matter, it’s important to take care of the material side of the issue, namely, finding a job in another city.

Of course, you can solve problems as they come, and start when all things are laid out on the shelves. But, as practice shows, it is better to come to another city already at the workplace. Getting a job in another city is not an easy process, but nothing is impossible!

Relocation: do it smart!

Naturally, the question arises: how to look for work in another city? Are there specific rules? Yes, I have! The process of finding a job in another city can be divided into several stages, similar to the usual way for us “announcement-resume-interview (interview)”, however, with some nuances.

Step #1 - go online

The first step - no, not for plane or train tickets, we take the first step at. Carefully study the labor market of the region, the vacancies needed by the employers of the city, study the information about the cost of renting housing, find out the level of wages and other useful information. Comparing conditions in different regions, availability of vacancies, wages - choose the most suitable one.

To search for a job, large Internet resources are also suitable, where thousands of vacancies from employers are presented, take a look at city sites, where, as a rule, there is a “Job” section.

Step #2 - connect friends and relatives

If you are moving to a city where your friends or relatives live, do not miss the opportunity to contact them for help.

Just tell people you'll be grateful if they tell you about a job that suits you, about vacancies in your city, about enterprises and companies that need people.

As they say, they don’t take money for asking.

Step #3 - Don't Forget to Send Your Resume

After studying the sites with vacancies, finding suitable options, send them to potential employers. Be sure to indicate in your resume that you are ready to move. Some companies provide housing for out-of-towners. If you need housing, mark it on your resume.

Step number 4 - use innovative technologies - online interview

If an employer has responded to your resume and offers a personal meeting, check if the interview can take place via Skype. By the way, this is not a novelty, and for many employers, this method of interviewing is familiar and quite acceptable. But you must be prepared for the fact that the employer's representative may ask you about the move. Your task is to answer the question without thinking. Potential employers shouldn't hear the “how it goes” answer about housing.

Uncertainty and uncertainty will only scare away a potential employer, and most likely you will not get a job. By the way, it would be useful to indicate the reasons for moving in if these reasons are not very personal.

Step #5 - Reconnaissance in combat

If neither you nor your employer are satisfied, take a short vacation at your current job and go on to “exploration”! Go to another city, meet in person with the employer, see the office, chat with employees. Perhaps the picture on the computer monitor is a hundred times better than reality.

As a conclusion…

And now you have successfully passed the interview and found yourself in a new job. At first, it may seem to you that you are “not at ease”: a strange city, strangers, work colleagues are not as friendly as you would like, because you are a “stranger”.

Don't focus on it. Your goal is to work together to achieve common corporate goals. So relax, you are not behind enemy lines, you are in a new job!
