Answer 1 :
Check the paper adverts online in the city you want to look for a job in.
Answer 2 :
Unfortunately your best bet is going to be to move there first and then start looking on the local papers (which are probably on-line). Most employers are not willing to pay relocation costs for someone to move and are hesitant to consider someone who is currently living out of state. The time and issues for people to move across country are a dis-incentive for a prospective employer when hiring a new person. (time off to move in, meet with movers, turn on utilities, close on a house or apartment)
Answer 3 :
try hot jobs, craigs list or check the ads in the SF papers. If you have any companies that you are interested in, check their web sites for job openings. You probably wont get anyone to pay relocation and you will have to add to your cover letter that you will be moving there and will be available to interview on a particular date.
Answer 4 :
www.craigslist.org for sfbay area there is a big jobs section... many posting, and also a place to post what you're looking for. it's a mainstay of job hunting here.
Answer 5 :
I'd tell you that these employers are probably looking at the address on your resume and wondering how much of an inconvenience it would be for you to get there. Unless they are paying for relocation, most employers shy away from long-distant job hunters, even if these job seekers attempt to "justify" that they are funding their own relocation. Try writing at the bottom of your resume that you're paying for your own moving expenses and see how that goes. If that's not successful, you might have to get someone's address there and use it to get the job or just move there and job hunt while you are there. Relocation can be challenging, do your homework before you decide to pack and move.
