How does a foreigner get a job i the United States, I have a good c.v., tons of experience, speak 4 languages, I don’t need sponsorship, willing to move, let’s say very flexible and versatile… even for low jobs… no response… what is wrong in the land of opportunity? Is there a job office around, does that exist here?

You have to keep trying. For one position you are competing with dozens to hundreds of qualified applicants. Also, you have to leverage your skills and the languages to the company that needs them. Find companies that sell to the languages you can speak to. For example, a buddy of mine speaks Punjabi. In the area I live in Punjabi is not critical to know and those that I run across also speak English. With technology and professional resume writers a lot of people look good on paper.

I think based on the resume you posted, not sure if this is the right fit? What kind of jobs are you applying for out of curiosity?

Thx for the response, at this moment any job would be great (a person has to start somewhere), so I can I invest to get my master.

I have no doubt in your credentials or experience but your resume format isn’t great. You should work with a professional to revamp it.

Thanks for the hint, I’ll look up how to do that. It is like a European (Belgian) standard, I have to adapt to a new market, when people get a job, as it is hard they should appreciate the opportunity and learn from it.

Has anyone ever posted a general marketing position? We have an open position on our marketing team but we are unsure what type of position to offer. We have a wide variety of needs but don’t necessarily need to have this future person have all these skills. For example we need someone with great copywriting skills and also need someone who is great at digital marketing. This person doesn’t necessarily need to have both skills but if they did great, but if only one, great too.
