Nevada - the relocation destination

Nevada is a relocation destination. There is no denying that. The workforce that we need to attract ‘today’ - does not live here yet. Nevada has boasted an unemployment level under the national average for many years. Currently we have been hovering around 4.0%. In the HR world - 4.5% unemployment is natural….and comfortable for most economies. When we dip below that 4.5% unemployment level - we are beginning to employ people that we would not normally consider. Most of which are unemployable.

The talent that is needed in Nevada - nurses, doctors, teachers, engineers and other professionals - don’t live here yet! It is our job to attract them. We need to sell the quality of life Nevada has to offer…..the weather, economy, entertainment, dining, shopping, outdoor sports….. the list goes on. Why do you think Nevada has been the fastest growing state for 19 consecutive years?
