I will be looking for a place to intern in a year for Orange County. Any ideas? Also, which has a better job security when there are jobs-private firms or government jobs? I heard firms lay off less.
I am vactioning with my wife's family in California now and I gotta tell ya the news is just beyond depressing. The unemployment rate is still above 12% officially, the folks that one the new majority want to turn away the funds for expansion of high speed rail, home building is still contracting:

I agree we can put that money to better use. Stupid high speed rail is worthless. It's years away from being built and is putting in a bad situation now.
Planning jobs will come back like they were in 07-08.
Orange County got hit the least hardest in this recession and I bet when the economy picks up some wealthy cities will be hiring. Of course, I am going to need 2 yrs of experience and a GIS certificate if I want that job eventually.
And I think that's be realistic.
