Jobs in Las Vegas

[tangoplus]

Okay, so I've been toying with the idea of maybe moving to Vegas. Of course I would probably end up blowing all my savings after a few months.. so eventually I would have to find a job.

Where's a good place to job hunt? Perferablely online.

Which sector is growing? Is it a good idea to work for a casino/hotel?

Speak freely!

The hotel industry has been cutting back mainly as a whole, but im not sure if Vegas is really affected. From what i know in my industry Vegas tourism is still down quite a bit from its regular numbers, but its still bringing people in, its not hurting that badly. Im sure theres Vegas sites out there for jobs, but i dont know them off hand. Ill look into it.

vegas is hurting bad....citycenter is bascially the only thing hiring and I just wouldnt trust them because theyve been pushing back dates left and right and there are bigtime rumors floating arund about mgmmirage(the investor). BUT when this shakes out and the "turn" starts there will be alot of opportunity.

I'd be interested to hear more on this as well. In about 5 months my lease is up in Chicago, and i'm debating going out west. Hopefully some locals can chime in.

If I went, Id try to get a job as a host. There pulling $100-$1000 cash every time the seat someone.

That would be ideal. The question is, how do you make that happen.

If they need a guy with a background in weapons/tactics along with some sales and higher education experience i'm their man!

You would have to start somewhere as a Jr. host, and start to develop a strong clientele. In the mean time, you would probably be seating clients for the Sr. host.

I wouldnt do anything with City Center right now. I work in the industry on hotel building and development and they arent paying any of their deposits. Lots of talk of MGM going under. We wont release anything to them without money, thats how bad its getting.

My friend's dad (many of you met this friend the past weekend) was actually just laid off from some projects on that out there a few months ago. Hopefully it turns around soon for them.

yeah there was a thread on it here, supposedly MGM is in it deep, I would be shocked if citycenter actually opened

I used to be in the Army. Not anymore. No Rambo here

Im right there with ya. I dont think its going too. Interesting idea, but its stalling. The Cosmo will be open way before and that a huge project too.
