Will you relocate to a different city from your hometown for better opprtunity?

Yes i would relocate to a different place if the oppurtunity in terms of work profile and salary package is good.Theres no second thought about it knowing that thre is no option in my hometown. I think u can very well relocate..these days distance is just a fraction of time..the communication is amazing and u can be here n there within no time. I wish u all the best.

Hello subha. In fact I have already moved to a different city far away from my hometown, which is a much better and more advanced city. I have been working here for more than a decade and I love it very much. I don't think that I will ever go back to work in my hometown until I get retired. I hope that you make a right decision for a better life, subha.

I would. Great opportunities come rarely in our lives. So, if I'm given the chance, I would really grab it and move to other place. Well, it won't be so hard for us since we don't have kids yet with my wife. It's never a problem for us to travel and live elsewhere. But of course, I will miss our hometown.

i may be a lot easier to relocate if you are 'alone', but for people with families - children who are schooling... it may be a bit difficult.. really hate to have to move the children and get them into new schools, and start making new friends all over again... but then... if the offer is really too good to let go... adjustments will have to be made... sacrifices, also....

well you should migrate form one city to another cecause if they are not paying you well and also you did not mentioned in which city you live or which company you work for so as any indian could suggest you the closest city which will be the most convienent for you and what type of job position you hold curently and so please mention and you may also go to mtv because they are searching for girls who are fluent in english and hindi so might your luck makes you fit there so you can take your career to the heights

If Im on youre position I will choose to relocate to a different city specially if youre no longer happy or satisfied with youre present job. There goes a saying that " Only those who take the risk can discover how far he/she can go".

I think that's a wise move if it pays you well and if you have more opportunity you should. Change is necessary that opens new horizons for us. You must take it up. Good luck!

Hi Subha, Actually i have been out of my hometown till date. I was borned abroad and then i have travelled a lot of places. I have been to Delhi, M.P, U.P, Bihar and now in Maharashtra lol and dont know where i will end up. Actually earliar it was due to my dad's transferable jobs and now due to our moving business i get to c a lot of places. Well i think its a great feeling to know differant places of your country as well as foreign places. Apart from food i can adapt to almost everything. I like learning new cultures and new life styles. Fromm my experiance i believe settling in Bombay has its own benefits and then work all around the world. Good luck with your new job! Cheers, Tutul

If i was single and i feel that i am not being compensated properly... or if i am not growing professionally in my current job... then i would relocated to a place where the opportunity will likely be to my advantage... if you really want to advance in your career... then take the risk... relocate... maybe you will be happier there... than where you are now...

I would make the move for the career if I was single and no kids. But if you wanted to settle down and raise a family later, a small city is much better for the children. My sister in law, moved from a small city to large city and she was miserable. She thought she can handle it. The move was for her job. But after one year she moved back home to her small town. Where she realized it is better to settle down in the small town and still have time for outings with friends after work, there is no traffic and less smog too. She also realized she has more money left from her paycheck to spend on shopping and saving for a house instead of trying to keep up with the bills. Now she is back home and just got married to my brother. So I am glad they made the decision to move back to their small town where they can enjoy a better quality of life. I currently live in a big city and been here for over 20 years and I am miserable. As a young child and student, it was not that bad. But now as a mother and working full time. I realized the big city is not the place to raise a family. I barely have time for the kids, we get up rush around the house spend hour in traffic then come home a night, (usually around 8pm) get them ready for next day and it is bed time. There is not time for family time until weekend. Which is horrible. I never thought this is the life we have to live, but because cost of living is so high, we have to work. Good luck with your decision and I wish you the best.

Yes, I absolutely would and have done so! But I am a person who loves to travel and experience new places and people. I get bored staying in one place too long. I have been here the longest because my son is in school! But you can bet I will be moving when he leaves for college! I look at it as an adventure!

Hi Suba I have been in 8 places in our country say i worked in pune,raipur,blre,chennai,coimbatore,erode,salem,trichy and my hometown is madurai. In all these years i shifted myself for better opportunity as we plan to work better we need to sacrifice atleast on one thing cald hometown. And being away from hometown make us to learn more about the new place and culture and habits.

Yes. I have done it. Actully in my native we hardly find any IT business. My hometown is a costal area all those business is about related to fishing. So i had moved to capital of my state to work in a IT company. Sometimes you have to sacrify for achieving something which you set as a goal. Now I am staying away from my family alone here in this place, even though i am the only son to my parents, i dont have any siblings. I miss my family very much badly. But i have learnt a lot after being alone and hpw a life should be when you really grow up as a Man.

If only consider the job, i will move to an different city firmly. The opportunity is not occur everyday. When you turn to older, you may have to much burden to move. I am working in my hometown now, it make me hard to make decision like move to other city. Parents become to a big resistence. Any way i support you moving to different city.

That is a right decision. We have to earn for making our living . So it is not bad to move or relocate to some other place where opportunities are more. If a person has good skills and talents, he can survive even in a new place. So I strongly support you. It is a good idea to move to another city to find a good job...My best wishes to you ..

[i]Hi subha, I will when it offers great salary but that is when I am single...It's easy to decide but now that I am married, I am sure I have to bring that topic first to the table and discuss with my husband and I am open to whatever his or the result of our discussions! I have tried this when I was single, I move to a far place and a place where I don't know anyone! My Mom at first doesn't like the idea but they supported me all the way! I had fun working there and meeting new friends...[/i]

Hi there subha12! I would definitely take advantage of the chance I get to have for better opportunities. I am fine with relocation for as long as it is all worth it. If you think that you have all the reasons to relocate, go ahead. Do not let anyone discourage you from reaching your goals and making your dreams a reality. If you think that you are ready, then by all means, GO!

Yes, I would, especially if the job that I am at now, does not pay me that well..

Yeah thats a good choice :) wish you luck you have a good point. I wonder what will I do if that happens to me. _
