Does anyone know of companies located within walking or biking distance of the VRE station in Woodbridge that employ computer programmers or IT professionals. I would appreciate any leads.

Are there any buses or shuttles that run from the Woodbridge VRE with routes to nearby employers?

I live very close to the Leeland VRE station and am considering job searching for companies with locations within walking distance of Quantico or Woodbridge stations. I haven't had too much trouble finding things near Quantico but have not found anything near the Woodbridge station.

Mostly strip malls with the typical strip mall stores and restaurants are within walking distance to the Woodbridge VRE station.

Here is the website for the local bus system:

PRTC - The Ride That's Right For You

Public transpo in Woodbridge is not abundant.

Yeah, eastern PWC doesn't have much in the way of IT jobs. you'd be better off looking for a work from home gig.

The Tysons Express commuter bus OmniRide Tysons Corner AM Schedule runs from the Woodbridge VRE. That would open up the dozens (hundreds maybe?) of government IT contractors in the Tysons area.

Monster.com and Dice.com would be good starting points. The Dulles corridor is usually where the IT jobs are.

A quick search on Dice within a 10 mile radius of Woodbridge. Programmer Jobs , Employment in 22191 | Dice.com
Possible, however not many.

Default Across the River in Lorton

If you cross the river, into Lorton about 1 mile north of the VRE station there are several federal IT offices with programming jobs. Geodynamics has an office just south of the bridge.
