Title: Software Engineer - fresh out of college
Post by: rabidfurby on April 29, 2008, 04:10 AM NHFT
I'm graduating in June with a Bachelor's in Computer Science and looking to make the move before my lease expires in September. If anyone knows of any software development jobs anywhere in NH, or within easy commuting distance in MA, I would be interested in them.

My resume is available at http://zackelan.com/resume.pdf. Contact me by e-mail or PM for a resume with full contact info.

Check out Monster.com, CareerBuilder.com, dice.com

Unfortunately there aren't a large number of places in NH and many of them pay 10-20% less than in MA.

Of course, adjust for cost of living and income taxes.

I'm not sure if you're still looking, but...I've seen programming jobs all over the state.  Lakes region (around Laconia), near Dartmouth (Hanover/Lebanon), Seacoast (Dover and Portsmouth), Manchester/Concord, and certainly Nashua.

If I were you, I'd strongly consider trying to find a job inside NH rather than putting up with the aggravation of a Mass commute, expensive transportation or fuel costs, and income tax.  Clearly there are gray areas though.  If you only have to drive 15 minutes more each way to get a job that pays $10k/year more in MA than in Nashua, you'll might want to carefully weigh the options.

And do keep an eye on Craigslist, as interesting jobs in NH do pop up quite frequently.
