I was wondering if people could share their experiences about looking for work.

As we all know, it is difficult to find work, so it may be helpful to share experiences from people who have been successful.

Thanks

Perhaps slightly unusual but we secured work from the UK and online that we can do from here. My wife works full time (remotely) for a UK company with 5 visits back to England per year for meetings (one of which is tomorrow :-(

I design and manage websites, write articles for a couple of online providers and also do IT support for clients in England.

It won't suit everyone, but there are opportunities for income aside from the limited range of opportunities here in Portugal, dependent on your skills.

Thanks for your reply. Really encouraging. I would love to be working remotely and travel is not an issue as I did that when I lived in the UK.

Thanks again.

Hi

I work full time from home in internet marketing with my husband, after all our only requirement is internet access for our laptops so it suits us very well.

Because we were already doing this in the uk it was easy to move over, though I find the broadband isnt at the same level so it can drive me a bit crazy at times.

Any suggestions on what you think is the best way to find online work?

It really depends on what kind of online work you want to do.

For example if you like writing you can do article writing work, blogging, set up automated websites that kind of thing.

Go on the internet research different types of work and when you find something you like go for it.
