I am considering it right now but before I move I am looking for a job over there. I don’t want to go over there with no job lined up. Has anyone else done this?
I came to the US with my American husband. I'm an RN so I had to get my RN license before I could look for a job. I applied online, had a telephone interview and secured employment 3 months before I left Australia.

I am planning it. I believe I am going to be moving at least twice in the future. But not for an established SO, but more hunting for 1. lol
I live in a small rural town. Not too many options, and the ones I did like didn't reciprocate, or notice. I plan to get to school in a small city that is around 30-45 min from where I live. There's a college there, and surely jobs and apartments, So, while I go to school and get into a bigger area, I may have a chance to meet someone than if I stayed here and went to school. Because I can sure as hell cross dating off where I live now. Then once I have finished school in the small town, that's where move #2 comes in where I go to an even bigger city for another school, and eventually career job, not a place-holder job.
But 1st I have to put in applications and find a job in the city for my 1st move, that will give me some good hours. Last job I had, around here, sucked with hours. I was lucky if I got 3, and I didn't work everyday either. That wasn't even part time. needless to say I quit.
So, finding a SO is one of my motivations for leaving, but not my only. There's other reasons lol
Dated my American ex in Germany for a year. Married and moved to VA where I knew nobody and quickly discovered that
a) my degree is not recognized here
and
b) my husband is not as great as I thought.
I started out with babysitting in the US and worked my way up rather quickly by networking and getting to know people with connections.
3 years later moved to California and started from scratch AGAIN but moved up quickly, thanks to my realtors effort (connected me with employers) and networking. I got an associate degree and hopefully soon a bachelors degree in law.
Love did not work out but life did. I am happy and no regrets. Well, some ... but moving and making so many new experiences was worth it.
Nowadays employer are open to skype interviews or hiring over the phone. If I were you, I would already start applying and researching.

That’s where I am having issues. I have been sending resumes and applications like crazy and nothing yet. Of course, this search has only been going on for about a month but it’s still frustrating no hear anything back at all
