Finding a job

sjgray2

Hello, My name is Sam from Exeter, UK. My girlfriend Tiphaine who is a french national, has recently qualified as History and Geography Teacher in french. Next September she will be applying to the french government to work as a teacher in la reunion. I want to follow her and find a job as well. I have an MSc in environmental consultancy and am a qualified scuba diver instructor. can I just arrive with my girlfriend and start job searching? any advice would be much appreciated.

Hi Sam,

How is your French?  You'll need it to work here as people generally don't speak English.   I haven't tried getting a job here (I work abroad) but unemployment in general is fairly high here though I don't know how things are in the Environmental Consultancy side of things.  On the plus side of things as a UK citizen you can work away no problems and life here is very nice indeed!

Best of luck

Stephen
