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?
