Fort Lauderdale Employment
 If you were to move to Fort Lauderdale, what do you think you would like to do for a living? Take a good long internal search about it, because you can pretty much do whatever you want for a living in this town.
If you are a high tech professional, there is a great need for network administrators, database administrators, and applications programming. Desktop support is needed at any one of the many large businesses operating in the downtown district. Even if a company is a large financial organization, like Liberty Mutual or Bank One, or a brokerage like Price, Waterhouse and Coopers, you find they have a need for your IT related services. Smaller area businesses, like some of the oceanfront restaurants and hotels, have a need for web designers, webmasters, and POS maintenance. If you are a degreed professional such as a lawyer, financial planner, or banker, you will find many companies where you would enjoy working. Approximately 59,800 people work within a two-mile radius of the Downtown. Of the total employed, 23.4 percent are occupied in professional and managerial positions. Major tenants conducting business downtown include ANC, Stiles Corporation, Republic Industries, KPMG Peat Marwick, and Bank of America, as well as, other major financial institutions and federal, county and city government offices.
 Like the rest of the country, Fort Lauderdale is experiencing a nursing shortage. This means plenty of jobs for those people who choose to make a living by helping others. Fort Lauderdale is a featured location of American Nurse, a nationwide placement service for RNs. Good working conditions and plenty of jobs attract the best and brightest in this industry. Travel professionals will find a field ripe for harvest in Fort Lauderdale. Working as a concierge in a local hotel will be a very satisfying experience. There are so many activities for your clients. Golfing, touring, fishing, cruising, it is there and the guests of your hotel will need you to help them get the best deals and the best schedules for their holidays.
Ultimately, whatever you choose to do for a living, you need to be in a place where you feel good, where the weather makes you a little giddy when you step outside in the morning, where you know you are a valued employee in a robust economy. There is no place in Fort Lauderdale where you will not get those benefits. This is almost better than health and dental!
