Do you have a green card allowing you to work? If not, get one. After you have one you will legally be able to work. To find a job check the classified ads, walk around the neighborhood looking for "Help Wanted" window signs, and ask friends for leads. Good luck.

Very few people. I can represent homebuyers in NY or CT. NY is more costly that CT, and the beauty of Connecticut is hard to equal. So unless you already live in NY when you found your Job that happened to be in CT, you would not plan it that way. You are not going to move to NY to live if you have already have a job in CT....unless you are 19 and want to live in NYC...at that age it is a different story...I was thinking of choices for people with families.

What are some good restaurants to work for in New York City

What are some good restaurants to work for in New York City?
I'm moving to New York from California and am looking to try waitressing . I don't have any practical experience working in restaurants but I am kind of doing an independent study (from a book) on being a professional server in a fine dining establishment. Anybody know of any places that might be a good training ground for a beginner like me?

Most Upscale restaurants wont start you out as a server if you don't have experience (in a rest). Your best bet is to get a job as a busser or runner...and work yourself up. Although a busser isn't a great job in the better restaurants you can still make around the mid 50's. If you are a quick learner and hard working it shouldnt take long for you to work up to runner then to server.

As a former head chef I could tell you that those positions are highly competitive and most high end restaurants prefer experienced servers. Your best bet is to get a New York yellow pages and make some calls. You might just get lucky. Good luck to you in your endeavor.

I would advise starting in a chain restaurant (tgi fridays, applebees, etc) to get some experience. most of them require less experience compared to upscale restaurants to get in. also I think another answerer suggested starting out as a busser, food runner or host and work your way up. really if you have common sense and are not afraid of hard work that can make up for lack of experience for many employers. good luck!

02 will, you might have to ring customer care to set up roaming if you've never done it before. Depends on the handset too though, customer care should be able to tell you that too. Don't make calls unless you have to, it costs a fortune! Texts aren't too bad
