Where to Work
The Greater Seattle Area job market is currently healthy. Companies like Boeing, Paccar, Amazon, Starbucks, and Microsoft are all growing and adding employees. The success of Microsoft and the many other software companies in the area have helped the Seattle area challenge San Jose?s Silicon Valley for High Tech leadership.
