Hi all,

I contacted a subreddit related to my future home area on reddit.com to ask for advice on job search in the area. A lot of people were really friendly and said I could just contact them if I had questions or if I found an I interesting position on their job's website. It's incredible what online communities can do. So now I have 10-15 people to contact ones I go there and get my EAD approved :) worth a shot for anyone looking for a job. Good luck!

Local reddit communities are usually pretty good sources of info for the area, I've seen a lot of job-related inquiries/offers in my area. Usually not too many trolls on those areas as compared to other parts of reddit.
