Job hunting in Italy

[il cacciatore]

Hello Lucy,
I read what you said and the other comments made and I think the most accurate thing people have said it that its about who you know and not what you know.
I myself have years of experience in one certain field, but it hasn't helped me one bit here. I like you went on the agency route looking for jobs to no avail. In the end it came down to speaking to some Italian friends. I now have a job working with some Italian friends. Its not very nice work and certainly not what I was trained to do, but at least it's work.
Whilst I appreciate working as an events organizer in England is a career, certainly here in Le Marche there's no money in it. In fact most of the fiestas are organized by the locals for the locals without any payment.
Try to think more laterally about work, there are lots of new factories built or in the process of being built. Try and find out who the owners are and if there are any jobs going.
It depends on how much you actually want to live here and what your really willing to do for it!
