Colorado Jobs

Employment Outlook: If you think the only thing Colorado has going on is mining towns, you couldn't be more wrong. Years ago Colorado was a huge draw for those looking to find gold in the Rocky Mountains -- and yes, mining jobs still exist within the state. But now the real "gold" coming from the Rocky Mountains is tourist gold. Tourist-related jobs make up a large portion of the work force in Colorado, and they are growing annually. With over 37 percent of the state made up of National parks and mountains, the tourism industry will continue to keep going strong and support stable retail jobs, customer service jobs and hotel jobs in the state. Let's not forget the beer! Colorado produces more beer than any other state in the US. Coors jobs are available at the world's largest beer brewery, located in the city of Golden. Dish Network and Qwest Communications are also great companies with jobs based in the state. Read More
