Hello people. You cannot just move to another country and look for a job. You have to be authorized to work there (or get a company to sponsor you). So the first thing you need to do is to get a job if you are not already allowed to work in the country that you want to work in (and it is not easy to get a company to sponsor you, so you need some talent and not just get a job in the mall)

If you have enough money saved up(or can borrow) for travel expenses and enough extra, make the move. Whichever location you choose, rent as cheap an apartment as you can when you get to your destination, and then look for work diligently and right away. If you cannot find a desirable job quickly, take a job doing anything reasonable, just to survive. If at first you have to take a job you don't like, keep looking while you are working. In time, you should be able to find work suitable to you.
As time passes, and with the right job, you will be able to move out of that first apartment and into something more pleasant.
Realize that if you do make the move alone,at first you are going to experience some lonely times no matter how strong you may be. (Loneliness is very stressful).
Best of luck if you have the courage to make the move.

The biggest problem with moving to New York without a job is that the housing will kill you. It is nearly impossible to find an apartment without having proof of employment. Most apartments have to be obtained by going through brokers, who will charge you a hefty fee (equivilent to one months rent or more.) They also screen you for the landlord, and if your credits not good, and/or you don't have a job you don't have a very good chance at getting a lease.

The answer? Sublet. Tons of people will sublet their apts when they go out of town be it for a weekend or 6 months. New York Craigslist is full of them, and you can get a great deal since many are furnished with utilities included. Just try to get as cheap a place as possible, without compromising on safety. Queens is a good place to look since it's mostly residential and though it's not very happening, it's fairly conveinient and cheap.

When you get a job, get your own place.

Save money before you move to NYC. Or else you will be broke in no time. Depending on your major look at the Sunday NY Times help wanted section to find a job. Usually those who graduate college live with several roommates to pay the high cost of living.
