If I'm not mistaken, the OP would like one of us to give her a job. Any job. Or find her one. Now.Our OP is not reading the responses to her previous postings.
Please help me. I live in Mexico and I'm willing to move for a job. I am fluent in both Spanish and English. I need a job asap. If you think you can help.. please do.
She'll need it, even to get work as a temp. Since she is not a Mexican citizen, mstever will need to apply for a work visa if she wants to work legally, and with all the Mexican citizens who are qualified to do this kind of work, why would an employer jump through the hoops needed to hire her?Here's one listing board:
Jobrapido | Bolsa trabajo Enfermera, ofertas empleo
Here's another listing that pays almost 500 pesos per day, less deductions:
Trabajo para estudiantes y pasantes en Enfermería
You can also try the temp agencies, such as ADECCO, etc. The jobs with them are as temps and placed into companies, but if you're good, in many cases the company using you will switch you over to employee status after 90 -180 days to cut their expense.
Good luck.

There are reasons why you never hear Mexican citizens complaining about "Americans" taking their jobs!! Its because they are mostly not open for us and Mexican employers would rather hire someone that is ok with working 48 hours a week for only 10,000 pesos (725 usd) a month.Out of curiosity I took a look at those listings. The fist link shows several jobs and I looked at a dozen or so and among those 12 all but one required a completed degree. Plus, as IslaVerde says, why would they go to the extra trouble to hire a foreigner when they probably have qualified Mexicans lined up to apply? In fact, I believe it may be illegal to hire a foreigner if an equally qualified citizen applies for the same job.
The second listing requires an 'obligatory' IFE which more or less means citizen and elininates the OP. The salary of $498 pesos a day minus taxes and deductions works out to a takehome of about $10,000 a month. One can live modestly on $10k per month but how would the OP be able to study to complete here degree when her job requires 48 hours a week over six days (the specific working days/hours are listed for that job)?
I wish mstevr luck but I fear the job search will be like hunting for the proverbial needle in a haystack.
In their own way it is a protectionist economy, which in light of what has happened to jobs in the USA is not as repugnant a thought as it was a century ago, when the USA was still younger and creating jobs in their new expanding industrial and geographical nation.There are reasons why you never hear Mexican citizens complaining about "Americans" taking their jobs!!

DER TURKIN IR JERBS!!!
Not yet. A century ago or a tad more, the American industry was build on the backs of cheap immigrant labor. My grandparents and their relatives worked the steel mills and coal mine of an expanding economy.:boxing:In their own way it is a protectionist economy, which in light of what has happened to jobs in the USA is not as repugnant a thought as it was a century ago, when the USA was still younger and creating jobs in their new expanding industrial and geographical nation.
I can't believe I am saying this, but it's a good idea-does that now make me a Conservative? OMG :eek2:
Precisely. My grandfather immigrated here and started a small business out of a pushcart. Yours worked, the similarity is that there were jobs, no matter how menial and opportunities that provided the means to step up into a better life, which obviously we as their heirs now enjoy.Not yet.

I think that the difference between protectionism and common sense is that the one manipulates import/export ratios by way of excess tariffs on imports, while the other understands that a society's first responsibility is to those who are citizens, and second to those who are not.Precisely.

Isn't this a bit analogous to the thread: the Mexican government wants to give its citizens the chance to move up an economic ladder, rather than throwing them off it by giving their step to a non-Mexican. Again, that is opportunity for their own citizenry and nothing that in the 21st century is all that bad...except for people like the OP.
what a profound idea ... :clap2:I think that the difference between protectionism and common sense is that the one manipulates import/export ratios by way of excess tariffs on imports, while the other understands that a society's first responsibility is to those who are citizens, and second to those who are not.
Just to be perfectly clear: that does NOT mean that a society has NO responsibility to those who come to live within it.what a profound idea ... :clap2:
Are we talking just US people or people visiting the US or US people visiting another country? I know for a fact these "rights" are not enforced for everyone on the planet.Good healthcare, education and provisions for safety are the rights of all of us, whether we are citizens of a country, visitors, or newly arrived immigrants.
This is my opinion; it hasn't yet become law.Are we talking just US people or people visiting the US or US people visiting another country? I know for a fact these "rights" are not enforced for everyone on the planet.
