I live in the north east of the United States. My wife and I are considering relocating to the south west. How does someone start the process of find a job out side of your current area? How can we find out about school districts and other beneficial information that would help in relocating? I know of the Internet web sites for job shearching but how do you get in contact with recruiters in those areas? I live in the north east of the United States.

i am doing the same thing and i have found that a place on the net called CRAIGS LIST has helped alot in locating a job and a place to live.
But have you considered asking your real estate agent about the schools and such? there are plenty of agents on-line who i am sure would love to help you find the perfect spot for you.
bon voyage!

Moving people across country at the company expense is a rare event today, unless you are at a VP or higher level. Some industries do more frequently, such as IT.
You or her could move there and take up temporary residence and use a PO box for replies. Also get a local phone number on a cell. Better yet, if you know someone there, ask if you could use their address and phone number as a contact point. If they agree, they have to let you know of any coorespondence you get and phone messages if you leave their number as if it’s yours. But be prepared to fly out immediately for any opportunities!
The distance scares companies. I have had many recruiters look at my resume and see my skills and contact me immediately. When I bring up the fact of living 10 states away, they always say “Oh, we thought you were local!” READ MY RESUME AS MY ADDRESS IS ON IT!!!
To search for recruiters, search on the job boards in the town you want and you may find a local one.
For schools, look here: greatschools.net
