Hello everyone,

I know everyone gets on here and asks about Phoenix related jobs, but since the market can shift from time to time, I wanted to get an update on how things are now.

I'm trying to find actual company names that may now, or in the near future be hiring for IT Professionals. I have many years of experience in Windows Server Administration, Certifications and patience. I'm looking for jobs either in and around the Phoenix area, or in Surprise or Goodyear (even though they are further out).

I would specifically like to work at some of the nicer hospitals in the area, or maybe a city related job.

I realize I'm new, and already asking for a handout, but I will play my part and contribute to the forums, so show a little charity please

Last thing...How are the local head hunters when it comes to finding a job? I'm guessing that finding a contract with some companies maybe easier than trying to get directly hired, I would like anyone's opinion. Thank you.

My cousin moved to Phoenix from Seattle the same week I moved to Seattle from the desert. Neither of us misses where we used to live.

He was in IT until the recession a few years ago, got laid off and has been working survival jobs to get by. I would not recommend Phoenix as an IT destination unless you have a government job offer.

people want cisco out here and lots of it. If you look at some of the requirements for jobs that pay well, they want cisco this and cisco that. My dad is having the same problem looking for work.
