Starting new position. 80-100% travel. The position is required to be located in Atlanta and I live in Dallas. Could I get away with not relocating? At least for first 6 months or so to see?

Do not, I repeat, DO NOT relocate to Atlanta. Dallas is much nicer and has better traffic. I'm currently in Atlanta and I can't leave fast enough.

Seems like it was a new job offer and op agreed to move to Atlanta as part of the deal. But given it's a traveling job thought he could get away w pretending he's Atlanta and staying in Dallas given he thinks he's gonna travel all the time. So basically I think you can do what you said and be in Atlanta when you need to be. You can just rent a really cheap room in Atlanta and stay there when needed...

Position requires atlanta base. Can I just cover my own exp when I'm required to be in ATL for training or meetings?

Umm just ask for a 6month "relocation" plan. Talk about lease, family etc etc. They may be able to work with you, if you're worth it to them, and won't have to pay anything.

I don't understand. Someone staffed you but doesn't realize where you're based???

A new position as in a new project or new job? Seems odd this wasn't raised earlier in the process.

New job.

I'm currently traveling to ATL from DC on a weekly basis. It's fun to visit, but I wouldn't live here. Buckhead & Midtown are the spots.
