Like a number of other states that are experiencing rapid growth, in an effort to keep and attract new businesses to the state, Oklahoma has enacted tax laws that offer additional tax benefits for operating within state limits. In addition, Oklahoma’s cost of housing and property remains among the lowest in the nation. Due to this business friendly climate, in recent years, Oklahoma has had one of the fastest growing economies in the nation.

While Agriculture is still important, Oklahoma is the 5th largest producer of wheat in the country, Government is currently the largest employing sector. Trade, Transportation, , and Utilities and Education & Health Services also contribute a large number of jobs to the economy and may soon overtake Government in terms of jobs created. Also of note is that Oklahoma has one of the fastest growing biotechnology industries in the nation and has an ever-growing workforce.

Due to these economic changes, if you’re looking for a job in Oklahoma, you should consider the possibility that your skills may be applicable to other industries. Remember that the job title you’ve had in the past may not be the same job title in all industries. By far, the best way to discover jobs in another industry is to perform a skills-based job search. As an added benefit, this could also return extra results in your current industry that you hadn’t seen or thought of before.

Keep in mind that with more results comes more opportunity. It’s those opportunities that will eventually turn into your new dream job!
