Every one of these is a relocation or a long commute — we hold no employer with a verified training path inside any of the 17 counties. The quote is the employer's own wording, retrieved from their own page; where they do not say whether training is paid, we say so rather than assume. The distance runs from the middle of your county to the middle of their city, so it is indicative rather than a route.
