This is a controversial subject. Does an employer hire someone who has invested in advanced education or the person that has a wealth of experience? Employer preferences do have an impact on this decision. To find out more info on this touchy subject, it is best to google the phrase "Education versus Experience." As an employer, this could give you an idea what other hiring managers do in this situation. For any potential employees, this info could help provide answers so you can know what to expect during your job search. Other considerations are 1) does the job require education? 2) the type of job 3) the value of the experience or education and 4) is the experience or education relevant to the job?

These two counties on the north coast of Washington have relatively high unemployment rates compared to neighboring counties such as Kitsap, Pierce, King and Snohomish counties. It is very tempting to just get up and move to these locations since commuting may be just too far to go and back five days a week. Here is a list of things to consider when making a move to that job in a different locale.
1) Cost to move (moving van, rent, deposits, moving helpers, gas, etc)
2) Brand new (where are the schools, shopping areas, no friends or relatives)
3) New area characteristics (crime, neighborhood atmosphere, weather)
Making a move for a job may be a good career move, but it will result in you starting over again. Military members and dependents live this life. So do some people whose jobs involve a lot of displacement. Others prefer to stay in one area, even though this might hurt them financially. They prefer setting down roots, no matter the cost. Make your choice wisely.
