Beyond individual job searches, we offer dual career searches to assist couples in finding jobs within a commutable distance of each other.

The Midwest HERC encompasses a rich mix of people, landscapes, and lifestyles. The region features pristine forests, international ports on Lake Superior, communities on the rolling Great Plains, river towns along the Mississippi, Missouri, and St. Croix Rivers, and vibrant cities including Des Moines, Fargo, Minneapolis–St. Paul, and Omaha. The communities that are home to MW HERC institutions offer an excellent quality of life.
