Looking for advice/opinions here,

    So this past December I received my MIS degree from the University of Florida and want to obtain a position as a Business Analyst.  After I graduated I was offered a place to stay from my older brother in Orlando, FL.  I accepted his offer and this is an amazing set-up for myself as I can pretty much live rent free while I search for a job, and when I find a job I will be paying an INCREDIBLY low rent to stay here.  Additionally I enjoy the central location in the state, as well as being in a metro area.

Now as you can tell it's mid-March… and I still haven’t found any decent leads into a Junior BA type position in Orlando.  I realize the Orlando job market is greatly service based, and “corporately” is considered “weak” or at best isn’t as strong as other metro cities in the US.  Also I have done some light reading (read: internet skimming) about the economic status and how the job market isn’t the greatest right now. 

Which brings me to my dilemma: do I start looking nation-wide to just focus in on getting that first Jr. BA position -- while giving up my extremely low cost of living, and numerous other personal positives for staying in Orlando -- or should I stick it out in Orlando until I find a position here?

Thanks if advance guys!

Funny you mention that Adrian ;)

During my last semester in school I had checked out KPMG based out of Tampa, FL (before my older brother's offer).  To make a long story short I passed both on campus interviews, was accepted to their office visit, had an aditional three interviews and was told decisions would be made within a week.   Well almost two months passed and I finally received a corporate (read: very short and ambiguous) "We're sorry we can't hire you at this time, good luck." letter.  

Now I'm not sure why but until you brought it back up, I simply hadn't even thought of applying to the other members of the "Big 4".  I've gotten right on that however...Thanks for reminding me!

I'm open to all ideas guys, keep 'em comming!
