Employment

As one of America's adult playgrounds and with an estimated per capita income just slightly above the state average at just under $30,000, there are many reasons to believe that you can find the perfect job in Reno. Plus, with the cost of living at 97.5, below the national average of 100, you'll be able to keep more of that hard earned money in your pocket, whether you're teaching engineering at a college or building a custom license plate frame at one of the local factories.

With the nickname "The Biggest Little City in the World”, Reno sets out to be a sight to see for visitors. Because of that, around 12-13% of the city's residents make their living in the entertainment, arts and recreation industries. If you're moving from an Ottawa recruiting talent firm that booked acts for venues like the National Arts Centre, than you might be able to find a place for yourself booking entertainment within Reno, though it may be less symphonies and more acts that can enhance Reno's nightlife scene.

Next on the list of top employers are construction companies and healthcare providers. If you've just graduated from school with a passion for building unique one storey house plans you could contribute to the suburb units that are popping up like daisies around the city. If you're a nurse looking for a new opportunity, there are six hospitals within the city.

Accommodations and food service are next on the list of available opportunities within Reno. If you're someone who has a gift for making a honeymooning couple feel welcome or catering dinners for a conference for electronic design consultants in town, then joining the staff of one of the luxury hotels or restaurants may be right for you. Again, entertainment is the name of the game in Reno, and everyone who comes to stay needs to be well fed and have a comfortable place to sleep at night. For those just starting out in the workplace or with years of experience, there is always something available within the hospitality industry of Reno.

The list of available industries within this Nevada city is rounded out by various opportunities in education, technical and scientific services, administration and finance and insurance. If you're someone who was not born to entertain, there are still many other jobs within the city that could be right for you. Reno is not known for its manufacturing though. So, if you're someone who has spent the last few years doing something like building a form of drive pulley in a factory setting, it might be time for a fresh career start when relocating to Reno.

If you're looking for further education to advance your career options while living in Reno, the University of Nevada, Reno is an institution with a student body of more than 15,000 students and a history that dates back to 1864. At this post secondary school, one can choose to study journalism, medicine, education or hundreds of other interesting and useful programs.
