Any tips on how to find a good job in Paris?
Thank you.

Finding a job in Paris is probably one of the hardest things to do, especially considering the unemployment rate in France...
It is so great, that all available jobs go to the native French people.
So unless you speak fluent French your chances of getting any job position are minimal... only if you are some kind of genius in your domain you will get a job.
Also Anglo-phones are more likely to succeed in getting a job in an international environment...

Thank you, bengal
I didn't expect it to be easy, but how do I start?
Any recruitment agencies in Paris? Where do I find job offers and such?
Is it possible to get a job in Paris if you don't speak French?

Is it easy to find a high-tech job in Paris?

Bengal · Paris Forum Guest

There are shortages telecommunications and high-tech sectors as well as hotel and restaurant work. English-language teachers and bilingual secretaries are also in great demand.

If your native language is English then you may search for an interpreter vacancy. Good luck to you!

If you are young, you can try finding a job in DisneyLand. It's very interesting, and not difficult at all. They offer many positions.
