It is policy in Tunisia that a foreign national is not allowed to fill a job that can be filled by a Tunisian, therefore finding any employment is virtually impossible unless you have a teaching or medical qualification.

yes thats true you wont find work there,however any old bugger can come to our country and steal our jobs, livelyhood, money, houses and anything else they fancy!!!!Whatever nationality!!!

it is possible to find a job there in tourisme or in foreign companies or open your own business.

go to specialised companies such as manpower or contact companies directly, but the best way is to find a job through freinds and connections, thats how the tunisians do.

to oussycat: i dont think that a tunisian bugger will go to UK and find a job.

Trying to find work in Tunisia can prove very difficult - as Jowan has said, it is virtually impossible!

You can only work in Tunisia if you have a properly drawn-up contract which has been endorsed by e.g. Ministry of Social Affairs.

If you do not have a personal contact who wishes to employ you or can help you meet prospective employers, you could answer advertisements appearing in the local press or place an ad yourself. You should register your CV and job application with the Bureau de l’Emploi Regional in the town where you wish to work.

You can also check out job vacancies in "La Presse" newspaper.

If you need any further info, please feel free to e-mail me.

Miss oussycat,

I wonder how hard you've been trying to find a job in Tunisia especially in the Tourism industry. Most of tunisians work during the summer and kinda rest during the year in the Touristy areas so there is tons of opportunities especially if you apply right before the summer.

You may walk into any hotel and find a job. I would start by contacting the ONTT which is the Office National du Tourisme Tunisien. You may also read the postings on the paper but you have to be able to read French at least. Also every city and town has an office called Bureau d'Emploi; you may visit them and they will help you.

It will be impossible to line up a job from where you are, you have to go there and fight for it just like everywhere else

You have a good chance landing a job especially in Tourism if you have high interest in the industry.

If you still can't find one please let me know and I'll make sure to line one up for you.

Good Luck.

PS: No one is tealing your livelyhood or your fancy life, there is a place for each and everyone of us on this earth, so let's try to make it better place full of love NOT DESPISE.

I recently visited Tunisia and fell in love with the place. I am interested in working there but dont know how to go about looking for jobs. I have a degree in biology and was wondering if there are many jobs there in the field of science or in universities. My french is poor but I am willing to work on it and I know no arabic. Also I have 2 children and so am wondering how hard it is to get them into the education system there? Thanks for your help any replies will be gratefully received.
