EMPLOYMENT IN BRAZIL
It is very difficult for foreign nationals to find jobs in Brazil, unless they are transferred there by a foreign company or are employed by a multinational corporation.
Unemployment levels are high, and given the low average wages in Brazil it can be difficult for expatriates to make a living there, unless they are earning foreign currency. Moreover, in order to protect the local labour force from foreign competition, the Brazilian government has imposed very high permit fees on companies who wish to employ a foreign worker, which act as a deterrent.
There are a number of online job sites which post details of job vacancies in Brazil, but these are mainly in Portuguese. Some sites specialize in particular areas of work, such as medicine or English language teaching. People who are interested in working in Brazil and have appropriate skills or experience may find details of suitable vacancies on the websites of large multinational corporations, or inter-governmental agencies that are based in Brazil. |
