Hi Guys,

After hours of raking the Internet, I have found this website. It looks very impressive. I am wanting to start a new life with my partner and 2 kids, and I am looking at Vegas as a spot for our new digs. I just have a couple of questions in regards to obtaining jobs.

1. Do you need experience to be a dealer or similar in casino's? If not, approximately how much is the starting salary?

2. Job availibility in the IT market. I am an experienced IT Technician but I'm finding it really hard to seek job opportunities.

If anybody has any answers to these questions it would be great to hear from you.

Thanks,
Dan.

The US has a horrible economy right now. Finding jobs may be tough. But if you can find something, Vegas is a great city.

You'd have much more luck finding an IT job. Dealer jobs do require experience, and fresh out of dealer school you can expect to start at the very bottom. There are a few IT jobs out here, depending on your particular qualifications and area of expertise. Check sites like monster.com and careerbuilder.com to get an idea of what is out here. Best of luck with the move.

You need a Visa to work in the USA. Talk to the US Embassy. It is unlikely that you will get one in less than 10 years unless you have some strong US tie or a substantial amount of wealth. Ties would be relatives or a Company sponsoring you. The US does not make immigrants welcome at this point.

There is also a diversity lottery each year for 50,000 visas. See the US gov Visa pages for information.
