As a creative professional, how can I line up a job in a new city?

New City, New Job

If you're moving from one area to another, a job search is usually part of the package. For creatives, this can be especially challenging, but some talent agencies specialize in finding freelance work for artists. Signing up with a career agency that will connect you with employment is a great way to go if you're able to find one in your area. It isn't always possible to find a job before you move, so if you find yourself in this position, you'll want to get some money coming in as quickly as you can once you're settled in your new home.

Make sure that you keep your portfolio and other related materials handy so you can interview right away for any jobs that the agency finds for you. There's nothing worse than trying to find something important when all of your belongings are still in boxes. Also, be sure to leave yourself plenty of time to find the spot where you're supposed to interview.
