Ohhh Hon, I hear you loud and clear. I'm in a very similar situation. My only advantage is having a job offer to look toward. I've been on my job for 28 years though. Companies are now looking for young fresh minds and experience means very little unless they need something right now. Try to get something lined up before departing and make sure your living expenses are covered. Insurance too is a BIG consideration. Don't overlook that. Companies these days are so focussed on the bottom line that anything above it has gotten unimportant. I'm not sure there's a way around it. I wish you the best and hope you find the perfect place for you. Too bad companies are so worried about dollars that people aren't important anymore.
