Since the decline of the timber industry in Oregon, jobs have been increasingly difficult to find. If you’re looking for jobs such as in Oregon and happen to be near the borders of Washington, California, Idaho or Nevada, you might be able to increase your job search results by expanding your search to include those states as well.

Despite this drastic change in Oregon's economy, a number of companies remain and offer a number of good paying jobs. The largest of these is Intel. Other notable employers include Google, which has a large datacenter there. As of October 2010 Facebook is in the process of building a datacenter in Prineville; and Amazon is restarting the construction of a datacenter that was previously cancelled. Oregon is also the world headquarters of Nike, Inc. which provides a large number of corporate and administrative jobs.

If you’re looking for work doing in Oregon, remember to consider that your job skills may apply to a wide range of industries outside of the one you’ve been working in. This means that the job title you’ve had in the past may not be the same job title in all industries. To discover jobs across different industries that are a great fit for your current set of job skills, it’s best to perform a skills-based search rather than a search based on your desired, current or past job title. This is also likely to return additional results in your current industry that you might not have previously considered.

With more results in your job search comes more opportunity. Those opportunities are what will eventually turn into your new dream job!
