1. Art Attack

New York is the cultural centre of the planet! From fine dining to street food, galleries, museums and fashion, there’s no other place on earth where there’s more to do.

2. All Business

As the home of many of the brands and businesses you’ve grown up knowing, not to mention Wall Street, there are few places more developed and lucrative in terms of work opportunities. Once you’ve got an entry into the local market, the sky is the limit!

3. Tech Hub

While Silicon Valley may be the flashier hub, on the west coast, New York has similar opportunities and demands. In fact, because many of the big tech companies are over in California, the talent pool (and therefore demand for) top skilled workers is much more tightly controlled. The opportunities for those willing to give it a go are immense!

4. The City That Never Sleeps

They say that you can locate anything you want at any time in New York. If you’re a night owl, or an early starter, that’s great news – there’s no other place on earth that will shift around your sleep patterns and preferences like New York. That means that late night dinner dates and early morning bagels are all there for the taking!

5. Aussie, Aussie, Aussie!

If you have an Australian passport, you’re currently holding a huge advantage. Recent changes in the way visas are managed has meant that New York firms are struggling to fill gaps with overseas talent they have previously depended on. However Australians are able to very easily secure an E3 visa, giving us the edge over international competitors.

We are currently recruiting for a long list of roles in New York. If you’ve ever thought about a move to the Big Apple, this could be the time to throw caution to the wind. Give us a call today.
