How hard is it to get jobs abroad? Don't want to stay in this **** country anymore!

Well it is better than an awful lot in Europe and the United States actually - try finding work in Spain, Greece, Italy, Portugal, France and so on. Our unemployment rate is the same as, erm, Sweden and we have some of the highest wages in the world. My sister has walked straight into a well paid job after her degree in chemical engineering - what is your degree in?

What mythical country is going to give you your super awesome job then?

Like i said, just becuase other countries are worse, doesn't make this country good.
And no, i don't even care about money, i want a job helping people in the chairty sector and doing something worthwhile and i really enjoy.
Failing that, i'd take a job doing anything even remotely related to my degree, and all i expect is enough money to live a reasonable life.

Too much?

True, i don't really want to be a teacher, but beggers can't be choosers!
The weather here is pretty bad, but i think that's not a good enough reason not to come here

Well no not really, what have you been doing to make yourself stand out and so on?

Too many people do a generic degree and do nothing at ...

You´re right!. I´m degree and master degree in computer science -an engineering- , and, in this moment I can´t apply to any job cause there´s no job!. So, i´m trying to get a better handling of this language -english- while i´m going seeking for a job/scholarship/intership... whatever!.

And, it´s true that Uk has some of the highest wages in the world. Totally i agree. For example, here in Spain the medium wage is about 600 €/month

Too many people do a generic degree and do nothing at university other than get drunk, take loads of facebook pictures and then get a 2.1 and expect a high flying job. My dad works as an economist in a bank, and he gets applications from all over the world for jobs, a lot of the foreign students have done absolutely loads of legwork - internships, audits and so on. I don't know your position, but too many people in this country are really soft and pampered, and expect everything on a plate and then groan and threaten to move to utopia like you are doing when everything doesn't just fall into place.

I'm expecting a 1st in my degree, i've done a work placement in the charity sector as part of my degree, and continued volunteering after i finished, as well as doing other voluntary work. I also plan (if i have the time) to volunteer again this summer.
I would do a masters but i can't afford it.

I know i have to work to get a job, but the problem is, no matter how hard you work and what you do to make yourself employable, it's still near impossible to find a half decent job in the public sector these days.

Yeah, there are a lot of jobs in IT in the UK I believe - London, Edinburgh, Cambridge and so on.

And yeah, I have family who live in France and everything is really bad over there as well

I know. Uk is a great country for work in IT, but in this moment, one of my problems is the language and the experience. I mean, if you have 3 years of experience in Java, you can get a good job in London although you don´t be fluent in english. I don´t know if i explain myself.

Where are you planning to relocate to? And what specific job are you after?

i doubt itd make much difference most countries have the same problems we do at the moment and the ones that dont generally speaking have bitchy immigration policies such as canada, northern europe, australasia etc. so unless youre a dual national or an expert in a particular field your chances arent much better than in england.
that being said there are a few programmes in china and the like where you get paid to teach english to the locals but they pay piss all anyway

Anywhere, and mostly anything..

I would like a job relating to my degree such as refugee/asylum seeker jobs/poverty/homelessness/domestic violence/crime prevention...Bascially anything like that, my degree is pretty broad so things relating to this would be great.
I'm not picky, i just thought it might be better to get some sort of job abroad but by the sounds of it, it's worse than here so am screwed either way

Your English is good, just give it a bit more practice and you should be fine!

Yeah but where? You speak only English right?

So?

Ireland - much much worse than here
USA - worse than here and public sector in America is really small and very strict immigration policies
Australia - strict immigration policies
Canada - strict immigration policies
New Zealand - strict immigration policies

I don't see how your problems would be solved by leaving, sorry

I'm in my 3rd year at university, hopefully graduating with a 1st class degree in the social sciences.
I've been looking/applying for jobs for awhile now and have come to the sad realisation and acceptance that this country has been totally ruined and is no longer worth living in.
All i hear is how no one, with any degree (exclud. business/law/medicine etc.) has been able to find any employment anywhere in this crappy country.

So my question is, how hard is it to get a job abroad?
I don't care where, i'll go anywhere but i was thinking it will be harder for me since most employers wants people who speak different language/or teaches english which i have no experience in.
Would it be possible for me to find a job in another country, or should i give up completly and join the thousands of unemployed graduates this summer?

Yeah, i only speak english.

I think i should just stick to this country now, and take my chances in the job market, hopefully i'll be able to find something, it's just all i ever hear from the newspapers/teachers/people i know who's graduated is that there's literally no jobs anywhere
