I have just finished an internship at a hospital. I moved up to the bay area to get my schooling and training done. Now that I am done should I stay here where they would offer me a well paying job and security OR should I move back home(i.e. family, friends, familiarity)? If I stay I would be offered a good job but I am essentially all alone up here. If I move I would be close to family/friends but would have to apply for positions and do the whole jumping through hoops interview stuff. Also, being a recent graduate might hinder my chances of getting a job, so I worry about the success I'll have in finding a new job.
But honestly every fiber of my being tells me to move.
What would you do?

It's really about what is going to truly make you happy. Money isn't everything. I have left good paying jobs before because they made me miserable in my personal life/home life. I don't regret it one bit.
However, if you feel a worthwhile opportunity is worth staying for.... try it out, and see how you like it. Home will always be there when you decide to go back.
Weigh your options carefully, no use going back home and resenting your friends/family for giving up a career opportunity. Whatever you do, make a decision and don't doubt it!
Best of luck to you!

Well what I would do is stay there for a while, till I got squared off money wise and job wise. I would stay there about 3 to 5 yrs for the experience. Then I would send out applications all around where my parents and family lives and when I got a job there I would mopve. DOn't move without having a job ready because what if you can't find one right quick. What you going to do?

i would stay where u are. they have offered you a job, obvioulsy youve been able to be away from your family to do your schooling and training. if your family/freinds are not that far away u could always take a road trip over the weekend. having secuirty in a job makes life so much less stressful, and you could always move back after a couple years. get some experience. somtimes its time to leave the nest...but thats just me. good luck in whatever you choose.

I would stay there for the time being and look for jobs where your family lives and then when u get a job out there sell ur place and move back to where ur family lives.

I would stay for at least two years, to gain experience and then move back home. Trust me, the two years would go by fast.
