Jobs exist in certain career fields. If you’re a waiter-waitress, nurse or other healthcare worker, or you have worked in the travel industry, you can probably find a job in Hawaii. If not, it’s a serious struggle finding employment for most people that move to Hawaii to live. The entire island is built on tourism. If your specialty is not sales, customer service, waiting tables, or selling retail you might want to reconsider living in Hawaii if you need to work – or at least doing a lot of research before you arrive. I know a guy with a lot of different skills that arrived on Oahu and tried for a year to get a job. Finally he accepted a telephone sales job just to get some income. It’s a very tough job market, and you shouldn’t let the unemployment figures lull you into a false sense of security about the place. The jobs most often open are in those areas I mentioned above. Bring a whole lot of savings to support you if you do not have skills in one of those fields. Someone wrote me recently and said she and her husband were thinking of moving to Maui.
They didn’t have jobs yet. What would their chances be of getting something in construction? Finding a job on Oahu might be quite difficult if you’re looking for something specific. When I moved back in 2002 I knew I wanted a job working in the internet marketing area since that was my specialty. I knew I wanted to make $50K minimum, but hopefully $70K. I was willing to wait a year or so before making it to $70K. The online business world was going very strong at that point and I didn’t have trouble within two weeks of lining up a great position with a up-and-coming dotcom business. The jobs available in Hawaii are, of course, mostly based on tourism. The second biggest area is either construction or in healthcare. The figures are not accurate when describing construction job availability since many workers are working under the table and off the record. The available jobs are most often in these two areas. If you can work in either of those two industries you probably won’t have any trouble at all finding a job on Oahu.
Oahu has about 1 million residents and there is some variety in the tourism area. You could even start your own unique tour business if you wanted. Oahu is not that difficult to find jobs on – and, you’ll probably be fine if that’s where you want to live. Now, on to the other islands… I’ve spent a year plus on Maui – working as a Marketing Manager for a resort firm there. Maui is heavenly – it was a perfect match for me. Many people that visit Maui think the same thing. Maui is high on the list for people wanting to move to Hawaii – but few have the money or job skills needed in order to make it there. In my case I started on Oahu and from here, found what I thought might be the perfect job on Maui. It’s much easier to start on Oahu and transition to another island from there. Much easier because you are now “in Hawaii” and can interview for positions on other islands. As you probably know it’s very difficult to secure a position in Hawaii without first already living in Hawaii.
A necessary catch-22 for most businesses looking to hire full-time staff. They want to meet you first. If you’re coming straight to one of the smaller (in population) islands – Big Island, Kauai, Maui, or worse, Lanai or Molokai, you’ll want to have your ducks order. You’ll want to have a lot of reserves because the reality of moving to one of the smaller Hawaiian islands without a job is that you’re going to spend a lot of your cash reserves just on basic living expenses until you find a job – which might take a year in some cases. Finding a job on Maui – if I just arrived there – would be quite difficult. I can do a hundred different jobs related to internet marketing – but, it’s quite possible that when I arrived – nobody is hiring. The job market is very small for everything except tourism related jobs, and healthcare (or retail). If you have job skills in an area that doesn’t relate to tourism or construction or something that relates directly to positions needed in Hawaii – in Maui, or one of the other islands besides Oahu – you might have a REALLY tough time of finding a job.
Big Island – There are two populations centers, but there aren’t more than 200,000 people living on this island. Cost of living is cheaper than Oahu or Maui, but still – the number of job openings must be pretty weak. Especially during this time of economic flat line. Kauai would be worse than Maui for job hunting. Finding a job outside of waiter, pineapple picker, or retail on Molokai and Lanai would be virtually impossible. And then, if you did – could you afford to live there? So, to wrap it up I would say this about moving to Hawaii and finding a job… Moving to Hawaii if you need to find a job, is difficult and the expenses you’ll face, and the difficulty you may have in landing a job, are things you need to take under careful consideration. If it were me I would try desperately to find a couple of companies that are hiring for what I did before I moved. That way at least there’s a chance I could have a job quickly and not use all my savings as I ran all over the islands to find a job.
I’d not recommend moving directly to any other island except Oahu unless you have a lot of savings and you do not mind blowing it. The huge “medical” field or health field appears to be the best career field in Hawaii. Best meaning – lots of opportunity and a competitive salary to match Hawaii’s high cost of living. in 2016 there were about 100 jobs listed in the field just over a two-day span. I didn’t check to see which were duplicates – but, most were not. Hawaii has an aging population. It’s a place where many from California, Michigan, and countries all over the world go to retire. The cost of medical care for elderly on an out-patient basis is very high. Often families will choose to hire their own in-house personal care aide to help their elderly parents to save some money and allow the flexibility of keeping the parents at home and not in a much too expensive seniors’ facility. Medical transcription is one job that has surfaced, and is paying about $15-17 per hour based on experience.
If your vocabulary and typing skills are up to it you might try that as a start, though at full time you’re only going to earn $30-$34k which won’t even come close to supporting a single lifestyle, i.e. you’ll need roomates or a soulmate that can supply more household income. are for telecommuters so you can live in Hawaii and work with any number of medical facilities across the USA. I saw an online course among the ads that said it certified people for being medical transcriptionists. Seems like a good job. Hawaii business is focused on a couple things and if you work in one of these areas you can likely move there and find a job quickly: – If you want to do sales, answering phones, or working in the hotel industry and have experience you’ll find a job quickly. If you sell condominiums or time-share and want to make your mark in Maui or one of the other islands -there is ample opportunity to do so. – There are lots of aging people on Oahu and the other islands.
They need in-home care, but not necessarily nurses. There are many live-in opportunities for those that want to trade some hours of taking care of a person in need in exchange for a room and sometimes food. There are also plenty of counseling jobs and jobs working with veterans or those that need mental health services. – There are many jobs working with construction firms – and home renovation firms. People are putting a lot of money into rehabbing their homes and need help. Tilers and roofers are always in demand. Those with skills they can use online to make $ can move to Hawaii easily. If you can do web development or writing or have some other valuable skills that enable you to cyber-commute you can build up a couple of jobs (gigs) and move. You’ll have money until the projects run out – and by then you’ll have worked hard enough to get more to replenish them and stay in Hawaii. – This is another employment field that does well in Hawaii.
