I have an opportunity to move into sales with my company (currently in Applications Engineering/Engineering Leadership Program). I am definitely moving into sales sometime in the next year or so but right now the only job open is in Connecticut (economy is killing growth).
I currently live in Austin and grew up in Dallas, so I definitely love Texas, however I am open to anywhere.
Last week I went to Hartford and met with a member of the team I would be working for, we mesh pretty well personality wise. And my new boss would be good, too.
So the question is: do I move to Connecticut or try and stay in Texas.
Mad props if you live in Connecticut or the NE and have some good specific reasons.
Update: Didn't get the job but got great feedback. I had absolutely no areas for improvement so I'm doing all the right things. Looks like I'll be around Texas for another 6 months or so! Next jobs to open up should be Boston, Denver, Seattle, Austin, and Dallas so I'm psyched about making myself the absolute best candidate for those jobs.
