    I'd add from my experience, that staffing agencies have been super good to me in Houston. I was offered quite a few corporate and mi level accounting positions and luckily due to rona, they were all work from home jobs too. I will say, that I reached out to them vs them to me and also sent follow up emails. Just advice for any professionals

    Solid recap on that topic. Being in the Houston area a little over a year now, despite Big City Poverty, COVID19, etc..... If anyone get's out and about they will definitely still see that Entrepreneurial Energy, that H-Town Hustle and even Continuous Corporate growth with the Rural areas transitioning to Suburban or bustling town. Definitely an atmosphere to make it what you want it to be.

    • @HanginWithTheYoungs
      @HanginWithTheYoungs  3 года назад +1

    • @daeraeceo
      @daeraeceo 3 года назад +1

      @@HanginWithTheYoungs So here’s one of the ironic and cool things to come out of the whole COVID19 situation, Houston is SO BIG and especially with things being locked down and events being postponed, over a year in and it’s like we are still waiting to explore our new place! Not to mention Houston’s location. We’ve made “same day beach runs”, and that could be to Gavelston where you get that regular tourist kind of beach vibe or to Surfside where you can pull up and post up right on the beach in your vehicle and even do bon fires. Then you’ve got San Antonio, Austin and Dallas all approx 3 hours away, with a whole lot of little town gems in between.
      We love to eat, shop and hang out, so we’ve got a few “routine” food spots LOL, And shopping is plentiful, whether a thrift shopper, boutique shopper or niche shopper, and there’s plenty of your regular chain stores too. Sporting options are unlimited, from all athletics to hunting/fishing and even leisure ranges for guns, bows, axes, you name it and they got a range for it... FRFR.😂.
      But one of the dopest parts so far has been meeting some Real Genuine People, and then being of different race & ethnic backgrounds, ages, etc.... Looking forward to hopefully linking up with you all. D, check your FB DM.
      Love Y’all’s channel. You’ve got a fan, I’ll be watching and supporting!

I have a few questions, I’m planning to move to Houston, how was your move there, did you hire a moving company, did you do the pods, what was your experience? Did you guys know anybody? How and why did you move to Houston? Did you quit your jobs there, did you already have a job in Houston when you moved? How did you find the place or area best for your family? I know is a lot of questions, but that would help a lot of people wanting to relocate there o any other state. Thank you & God bless!
