NYC Tops for Entry-Level JobsPOSTED April 27, 2007 MILWAUKEE, WI -- New York is the top city for finding entry level job openings according to a list from job site CollegeGrad.com. The list represents more than 34,000 jobs for entry level job seekers found on the site. New York and Los Angeles top the list for cities with the most entry level job openings. Houston, San Francisco, and Philadelphia, PA round out the Top 5. New York, the largest city on the list, accounts for about 3,300 entry level jobs, while Los Angeles accounts for about 2,800 jobs. Miami, Chicago, Tampa, Dallas and St. Louis round out the top ten, all with more than 1,600 entry level jobs. "I always recommend that entry level job seekers take note of cities with hot job markets and remain open to relocation to those areas," said Brian Krueger, President of CollegeGrad.com. "Being willing to relocate can open up significant opportunities that may not be available in their local area." Entry level job seekers are consistently answering that call. In annual surveys, CollegeGrad.com has typically found that more than 90% of college grad job seekers are willing to relocate. But before taking the leap, Krueger advises considering additional factors. "Understanding the local cost of living is an important consideration when deciding to relocate," said Krueger. "It can be particularly useful in salary negotiations, when comparing similar jobs in different cities."
