About Working in San Francisco, California
San Francisco lays claim to many food firsts. The country's first craft brewery was founded there. An alcoholic coffee served at an Irish airport was recreated and dubbed "Irish coffee" at the Buena Vista Café. Add to that the Mission-style burrito and the martini. Despite this, not all San Francisco jobs are in the food industry. Jobs in San Francisco banking have a long, successful history, too. While financial institutions throughout the U.S. were hit hard by the Great Depression, San Francisco's Bank of America was able to finance building the Golden Gate Bridge, creating hundreds of jobs in San Francisco for ironworkers. Sitting on the bridge girders watching the mist roll in may have sparked the idea for vodka made from San Francisco Bay fog.
If that doesn't tempt you to look for San Francisco jobs, we could also talk about the city's famous Ghirardelli chocolate, local coffee, cable cars, and Victorian homes. If you want to relocate a little further from the fog but still enjoy the taste of San Francisco, you might look at Daly City, South San Francisco, and Oakland.
