I've worked in 3 different cities as an art director and graphic designer and it's the same wherever you go. Left-brainers VS Right-brainers... AEs vs. ADs... you just have to learn to develop a thick skin or you won't be happy wherever you go. I'm freelancing now and it's a little easier for me. I have a variety of clients I work with, so I'm not always locking horns with the same AEs. And the same Creative Directors, who can also drive an AD mad! Anyway, to answer your question, check out Creativehotlist.com. It's on the Communication Arts Web site. You can post your portfolio, put a listing, and search for jobs. You might also want to join the AIGA. They can send you a daily listing of new jobs around the country. You can also network at your local AIGA chapter. I've done both of these things and they have brought me new business. Good luck!
