Good Jobs in Baton Rouge? (credit, to move, company)

[Xcaped NOLA]

Can anyone give me an idea of where to start my search for a job in BR? I plan to move from Little Rock back to my native La. by the fall or winter(courtesy of a layoff at my current job ) and needed an idea of what companies to be on the lookout for in BR. I know the standard search via the newpaper, website etc., but I wanted to target companies in BR that maybe someone on this forum has worked for and has good things to say about. My career background is in finance, credit and customer service(the latter of which I have distanced myself from because of crappy pay). I see that CHASE is one company that I've seen in BR that is growing and that I would not mind working for. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanx

You don't have a lot of large organizations except for government and the petrochemical industry. But here are some ideas:

Blue Cross
Shaw
State Government
LSU
