Work Colombia, Colombia Employment, Colombia Jobs...
So you want to work Colombia? You have made the decision to add "Expatriate" to your resume of living experiences. Many people take this plunge. The term expatriate or in the abbreviated form, expat, is a person temporarily or permanently taking up residence in a country and culture other than that of the person's upbringing. The word is derived from the Latin terms ex ("out of") and patria ("country, fatherland").
Do you already have a Colombia job offer? Are you looking for Colombia jobs for the sake of change of pace & advenrure? Whatever motivates others in moving from their own country to a different locale & culture always facinates me. If you are an expat, I ask you to visit this page. I would be interested for you in contacting us using the contact form. I'll send you the questionaire and make you part of the learning experience. We would and our readers would enjoy to hear more of your story.
"What are some of the things that you should consider before moving to Colombia?" All good questions in need of trust worthy answers. I think equally important would be asking and finding the answers, "How do I go about making the move & transitioning myself back to my home country?" Maybe the second question you can answer after the journey has begun, but I personally would consider the process before leaving home.
Here's a list of some questions you'll need answers for prior to begining your adventure.
- Are taxes due to my country of citizenship, how much, how to report and when?
Insurance
- How will I obtain regular & emergency medical-dental care?
Buying or Renting
- There is a GREAT GUIDE HERE helping you know facts so not to get taken advantage of by the "Gringo Tax."
