working in france

Hello all! I am an Indian National who pursued my PhD from University of Montpellier, France from July 2012 to July 2016. I obtained my PhD degree in July 2016. I then took a break for a period of 10 months during which time I left France and I worked as an unpaid staff volunteer in Dubai for...

Without breaking the forum rules about advertising, I'm wondering if there is a need in the Moissac area for a professional live-in (or out) caregiver/nurse? I see that the UK has many agencies that specialise in providing home carers for the elderly who may have Alzheimers or other dementia...

Hello Everyone! I just recently got married to my husband who is a French national while visiting France during the three month tourist agreement. I am back in the states awaiting my long stay visa and then I will be returning to France. My question is what are the steps I need to take once I...

Hello Expat community! I'm currently applying to jobs following my student visa (APS) in France. If this option fails and I am unable to renew my visa, I'm wondering if there is another way for Americans to stay legally in France and freelance as a journalist (aside from getting married!!) I...

Hi. I've lived in France for over 10 years now. I'm married to a French man, work in France (in the French luxury industry) and raise children in France. So, I thought I could be a help to a lot of expats moving or already living in France. <snip> I've 'been there and done that' !

I am sure this is a very basic question, but Hubby and myself want to move permanently to France. We would love to live in a smaller village in the South. I am not sure how the job market is, but would be willing to do about anything. We would sell up what we have here and therefore have some...
