Renewable sector jobs

I have been posting Renewable energy jobs in my forum.
I have a question that you guys can help me with.
Would you search for a job primarily for location or Wage rate.
Coming from England everything is rather close so i was wondering in bigger countries if location was the biggest factor.

Re: Renewable sector jobs

Grant,
In the USA, location is more important for several reasons.  Our transportation system is limited and mostly automobile oriented.  Cost of living varies a lot from place to place.  Being from the rural south, I would feel out of place in what we refer to as the Northeast corridor – wall to wall humanity from Washington DC to Boston.
Hope this helps.

Jim

Re: Renewable sector jobs

Hi Grant,
I'm from Europe too, and now live in the Pacific NorthWest (Oregon/Washington).  I find that in general, people in the US are much more mobile than in Europe.  Some people will go to the end of the world to get their dream job.  Some people move to an area they like, and then look for jobs, instead of the other way around.   People from the East coast and South are in general less mobile than those from the West.  And then, there is the matter of finding a job for a spouse/partner, so size of town will be a criteria.
So like with any other marketing topic, you'll find anything, it's a matter of how many % will prefer one way or another.   Try to make both criteria easily viewable/searchable.
Sorry if I muddled the issue further.
Cheers,
