Thanks Bhavna

Hello I am from Nigeria I would be moving to Curitiba for studies...I have tons of questions to ask..
Firstly, would like to know Job prospects for a foreigner like myself. I would also like to know availability of an affordable decent accommodation.

Last but certainly not the least for now,, how safe is Curitiba ?

Obrigado

Mike,

You would really need to make certain your VITEM-IV Sudent Visa permits work, and then it would probably only allow a maximum of 20 hours per week.

Other than that finding any kind of work for expats is difficult, since the law here requires all employers to prove to the Ministry of Labor that they've exhausted all efforts to put a qualified Brazilian into any job vacancy before they can fill it with an expat.

Really, about the only work that's easy to get is teaching English, Spanish, French or German at a (commercial) language school and they pay near-slave wages, no benefits, no class prep time, etc.
