Relocating to a new city is full of challenges and one of the biggest is what job opportunities are available in your field. Are you considering moving to New Orleans, LA? Perhaps your next military relocation is to NAS JRB New Orleans and your spouse will be looking for a job in the area. Or maybe you have visited before, fallen under the magical spell of this historic city and feel her pulling you to return...not as a visitor, but as a resident.

Obviously, the health care and legal communities are some of the most terrific and highly regarded employers in the region. I'm sure that this is greatly influenced by the prestigious educational institutions located in and around the New Orleans area, such as Tulane University and the LSU School of Nursing.
As the recovery and revitalization of the New Orleans region continues, I'd like to welcome you to my hometown and my city.
