Relocation

Are you willing to relocate?

• Please don’t say you’ll move if you won’t.  It wastes everyone’s time.
• No surprises; if Grandma is moving too, be sure to tell the recruiter.  The company will need to understand your relocation costs.
• If you have large items, such as a grand piano or many live animals, like six cats, be sure to tell the recruiter so plans can be made and the company isn’t surprised.
• Be reasonable about your report date: you may have to leave your family behind for awhile until your house sells.  Two to four weeks is best for the start date.  If there are extenuating circumstances, six weeks should be the maximum.
• If your house doesn’t sell in a reasonable amount of time, maybe you should rent it. Property management firms can assist you.
• Your recruiter or the company can assist you with housing information.
