A career? Yes, that means working and most people who live in Bloomington and want to work have many choices. Over the last 30 years Bloomington has experienced above-average growth. As an international community in the middle of the Midwest, it attracts global trade and business investment. As a result unemployment rates are low.

Indiana University is by far the city's largest employer with more than 6,000 employees but it is also home to many of the nation's leading manufacturers.

But this is supposed to be a page about careers in Bloomington. The truth is that Bloomington has some excellent resources to help you with your search for a career. I didn't want anyone to miss the opportunity to check them out.
