Hey everyone! Job searching is usually challenging and job searching in another country takes things to a whole new level! In this video, I give you my 8 tips for finding work in France. I'm sure I didn't list everything, so feel free to comment below with other tips you've thought of! I know people will appreciate all the advice! xx
Hi Mam pls guide me I'm doing my masters in mental retardation will be possible a teaching job over there for special children who are mentally challenged
HELLO FROM INDONESIA,I WORK IN THE TOURISMS AS A TOUR GUIDE,AND NEED YOUR HELP TO FIND A JOB IN FRENCH
I'm poor family members
I need job
Please help me
Job searching in France was the biggest challenge I have ever had to overcome. I had at least 7-9 interviews before I landed a job I could use my skill set in. I recently landed my first CDI and started with a good startup in France and I am so happy because all my colleagues are super cool, funny and welcoming. Whoever is out there looking for a job right now, I know it’s hard, but don’t give up! Keep your chin up and keep going, because good things come to those who wait and put in the effort!
Very difficult for foreigners you know.....companies hire mainly for internships (which is very difficult too) and then they let you go!! Even CDD is so difficuot to get. I don't understand why these companies don't hire foreigners?!! Forget about CDI (for us outsiders)
Hello pls can i get your number
I want to make some inquires
Congratulations, I'll really hope that you startup growth and reach the goals and objectives design to the future.
Can you explain a little bit about the development of you project?
A big wave and read you later. Success day.
Thank you for your advice.
I'm so glad you're making more videos! You're filling the Not Even French void for me!
Thanks!! Glad you liked it :)
Great video! All of the info is direct and clear.
(Also you answered my questions that I have had about Rosie's life in France in one 10 seconds)
I was just wondering more about this the other day! Thank you, Kate 🙋🏼♀️
Of course! Glad it could help!! 👍🏼
Very helpful through video. Thanks so much!
Love it. No bullshit. Straight to the point. Good content.
Hi Kate, this video came at just the right time. 😊This month I started as an English assistant through the TAPIF program, and I'm currently looking into ways I can continue working in France after the program. Thanks so much for these tips!
I loved love loved the tapif program and it gave so many opportunities for staying in France afterwards, whether it was extending the program for one more year, moving towns and doing a year of au pair or english lessons to see something different, getting a masters etc.. Enjoy the TAPIF program and take advantage of all the school time off to travel!! If youre determined to stay afterwards, you will totally make it happen!
I liked the part of the short term goals , something which reminds me the concept of mission statement and vision statement . An very inspiring videos for expats whom want to settle in France. It's very well explained with positive energy and a zeal of humor . Good job Kate !
Thanks Mounir! So glad you liked the video!
@@UnintentionallyFrenchified No worries at all.
wonderful positive video!
Thank you so so much for this video. Amazing tips, had started doing some of them before watching the video, but most of them are new and I believe they will help a lot. Pray for me 😍
The French place a strong emphasis on certification. In the US, someone could list their last job as being a project manager without having the PMP certificate. The French would suspect that someone who lists that as their job title without a certificate is just someone who worked under a project manager, and is deliberately misleading prospective employers.
I can tell you more genuinely understand life, living, and work in France, very good, excellent tips for those looking to move to France.
Thank you for this video, i'm still not self-confident, despite the fact that i study here and can understand french. You are amazingly confident and did a great job! Thank you for an awesome example.

Love your video. Maybe you could do a more detailed video about the internships/jobs you had so far. It's always interesting to hear about other people's experiences.
Great idea! Will add this to the list!
Great and fruitful video, I've noticed a weird sound in some of your videos, you might look into that :) Best!
Thanks for the tips
This video was very helpful Kate. Thank you very much. I'm a newbie in French language looking to work in France and this came at right time
I love your videos!! I unsubscribed from Not even french who’s now left Paris,and it’s a pleasure to watch you as you are in Paris! Keep up the good work;)
So glad you enjoy the videos! I plan on keeping it up for awhile! 😍 I know Rosie from Not Even French has left Paris, but she's still got videos coming out on a regular basis. So if you enjoyed hers too they aren't over yet!
Hey, just read your comment and wondered what makes you drawn to this Channel or Not even French for that matter? I'm thinking about starting my own channel so I'd like some advice for good content in this niche
@@vincentoppong90 I would love to know more about the cities of France and which are more school based Vs career based. I feel like Grenoble looks like mostly students go there while Paris is a good mix!
loved your attitude
This is actually a very good video! Thank you for the tips :). Do you have any special recommendation for a Science Graduate? I understand French and I have a Master so it shouldn't be too difficult to find a job?
Great video, thanks Kate! Questions for your Q&A: how do you deal with being apart from your family in the US? Do you ever regret living in France or wish you lived in the US again?
Great question! I'll make sure to include it! And glad you liked the video :)
How do you financially support 18 months of unpaid internships.?!
Thank you very much!
This is helpful.
Just came back from an exchange in France and I’m so sad I had to leave. I want to go back for a longer time so this is just came at the right time xD
Perfect! The same thing happened to me. I left and then tried to strategize the best way to get back long term!
@@UnintentionallyFrenchified Hello Kate, I finished my study in France two years ago and wanting to move back. Would you recommend I get an APS visa and just go or should I move until I find something promising? (There goes my very first youtube comment.) Thanks!
Um wow your journey to a job in France is almost exactly my goals/ future plan (TAPIF, masters in marketing or related place , im trying to study abroad since im minoring in French)
You have the most beautiful hair!! Do you do anything particular to make it so shiny and soft looking?? It’s such a beautiful color and looks so smooth!
It's very helpful video thanks for sharing. I want to ask one question about the delivery job if you have EU driving license so is it possible to get delivery job.
Many companies will sign you on CDD before giving you a CDI. Work laws are good for workers in France so you still get many of CDI's benefits. There are strong laws limiting the use of CDDs so at some point(within 18 months at most) the company will either have to give you a CDI or let you go.
All true! Thanks for sharing!
Do you have any additional tips, or know of a good resource of information, for people coming to France (alone) with small children?
Did you enjoy teaching English? I'm currently in France but I need a job. Teaching English might be something I have to do temporarily although it isn't what I desire to do.
Thank You So Much.....U Speak Sooo Fast.
Hi, thanks for your sharing so much! Do you know the requirements of the early childhood teacher in France? I’m your Chinese fan by the way :P
Sowieso de taal goed beheersen en opnieuw een studie doen in Frankrijk zodat jij lesbevoegd wordt.
'A couple of guys that have mopeds' - Ha!
I just started learning French , Next to is finding a job in France , then getting French visa , then move ( apartment search )
Thank God I came across your channel. I just moved to France precisely am in Thionville. Please do you have any resources for jobs in the nongovernmental organization (NGO) or social work?
Hi! I don't have any resources in those type of specific job places. But I'll let you know if I come across anything! Good luck in Thionville and happy to hear if any of the videos are helpful!
Please say something about ACCA job profiles in France
I am doing a masters in finance from the Uk and I’m interested to work in Paris after my graduation. How should I go about it?
I’m just starting my career, can I get internships or not?
Hi! I will be doing a Master's in Materials Science/Physics and potentially a PhD afterwards in France. Do you know if this field has good employment opportunities in France? If not this field specifically, do STEM expats like me typically find jobs?
Hi Kate! Super helpful and encouraging video :) I'm looking for the links you mentioned that are in the description and I'm not finding them.

I’ve heard that when you come for an on-site interview, you should avoid speaking in English for any length of time when the interviewer switches to English. The interviewer will remember you as the applicant who had problems conducting an interview in French.
this doesnt make any sense?
Merci Madame
Thank you for the video! Is it (in general) possible to enter straight into the M2 of a master's program if you don't have a significant amount of relevant work experience? I have a bachelor's and I'm currently living in France doing a language program. I would like to pursue a master's program next year, but I've found that a lot of the M1s are in French. I don't think my French will be strong enough by next year to study masters level courses in the language. :/ How likely are universities to accept students straight into M2? Thank you!
Hi Christina, good question! my experience with business schools is that is absolutely possible to apply for an M2 program in english and skip that first year. Since you already did a 4 years bachelor program and the French students do a 3 year program, they are usually flexible even without work experience to go into the 2nd year. I had no problem doing it. I'm not sure how it for a university though. The price per year is so much more affordable and I wonder if they are less flexible letting you jump into a M2 program without having done the M1 program. I honestly think that the university would be the best person to go to and show your level of french and get their feedback. If they tell you that your French is good enough to go for the M1 and not the M2, i wouldn't take it too hard to do an extra year. Sometimes putting the extra time in beforewill pay of later! I did 1.5 years of internships to finally get a job with work experience and 6 years of school before lol. The things we do for France! Good luck finding the right fit for you!!
@@UnintentionallyFrenchified Thank you for the response! It helps a lot. I'm going to go for it and see what happens! Thank you for the videos!
@@UnintentionallyFrenchified Iam Alphin from INDIA, i need driver Job at France , what i will do. i have indian driving licence LMV(Light Motor Vehicle) can you please advice and any unskilled job available please advice how am apply.
I'm currently angling for a work transfer. The first interview, they said it was impossible and for the second, they said they would have discussions. LOL
Hopefully it works out in my favor. In the meantime, I've been enjoying the Lingoda marathon. I thought I knew an acceptable amount of French until I started speaking with French folks...
I would completely have the French mentality about getting transferred with your company, every time you hear a no, see that as room for negotiation 😂I work for a large multi national company and a lot of people are interested in moving offices and they can't make that work for everyone, so its a lot of push and negotiation and seeing no as an opportunity! Good luck making it happen and good luck with the app to get your French improving!
updates?
Thank u
Not all Master 2 courses include an internship. It depends on the course of study. For some professional masters courses, it's compulsory. Too old for internship? Never! I got a number of them and I'm way over 40!
Love hearing that you did internships later in life. Goes to show that it's becoming more normal in the french work environment! 😄
@@UnintentionallyFrenchified It took a long time to find them, but I was very picky! I had a clear idea of what I was looking for, within limits. My internships are my calling cards for a new career. I targeted sectors where my age and previous experience would put me at an advantage.
@@nikkiscott4341 Such a great idea! It seems like the French really shy away from changing careers later in life because the workplace is less flexible about transversal skills across different markets. Internships are a great way to get around that. Who wouldn't want their "intern" being someone with lots of previous work experience somewhere else? It's also great if you were strategic about what you wanted and picky! Impressive!

Do you need to provided your diplomas once they offer you a job?
What about a CV and cover letters, is there a "French" way to write them?
Great question! I would totally check out badass careers for that type of insights. There are some differences between the two countries, but Rosie gives way better tips than I can on what recruiters are looking for on a CV these days!
One side tip: never ever throw a pay slip, whatever the amount and duration, whatever it was internship or cdi. One day it may be vital to prove your retirement rights.
There's an English speaking job but the job description is in French, should my CV be in French or English. Can someone help plz.
That sound of an ambulance at the end is so specific to France. In Italy I think that's for police
Do you know any resources for finding science/medical careers in France?
Merci!!
Hey becky! That's a good question. I honestly don't know of anything that is really specific to science or medical careers. Did you study either of those fields in France already?

Hi my Daughter want to join France Army what should her do to get contact information of France Army?
Hello, thank you for your video. As far as I know, you need to be a student to do internship, so after 6 months of internship for the master, how did you do the other two?
My school allowed me to sign up for one more year without doing the classes (or paying the admin fees) so that I could have a convention de stage for another year. It never hurts to ask!!

Can one get a job at Tech in France without having a CS degree?
Is there a list of French companies that hire english speaking (or at least minimal french speaking) foreigners through the new Tech Visa or Passeport Talent? I've heard France is really trying to up their game in the tech world trying to recruit foreign talent to compete with Silicon Valley giants.
If this is the case, is it as easy as applying here in the states and then hopefully them sponsoring your visa and doing all that stuff here then moving to France? Even if a French company wanted to hire me, how much time would I need to wander my way into a consulate and doing all the visa paperwork before booking my longterm airbnb and one-way ticket?
Can I get a job in France if I came in visit visa ???
can we do some online job from home .plz mam help me out i m jobless .

1. Have a job there before you go. 2 Have some friends there before you go. 3 Have a place to stay before you go.
1. Nightportier 2. Campervan 3. Make friends there? Other foreigners works best. Or the staff at your workplace. Or connect with grafittiartists. Find a legal wall to paint on. Search for the ones who share your hobbies - those will connect.

7 mois pour trouver un travail ? °o° Ca concerne de jeunes diplômés dans une région dynamique je suppose ? En fait il me semble qu'il faut de 1 à 3 ans pour trouver en région en n'étant ni jeune ni super diplômé ... J'ai même finalement dû exercer un autre métier pour pouvoir payer mes factures :-(
Je pense que c'etait le moyen partout en France en 2016/2017. Malheuresement si le moyen est 7 mois, il y a sans doute les gens qui prennent plus de temps. J'ai mis plus aussi!
@@UnintentionallyFrenchified La moyenne, oui ^_^ Parfois on se demande comment sont calculées les moyennes ! A l'époque j'avais relevé un an (en province pour un candidat pas vieux et un peu de bagages).

Het is waar over de Franse taal. De Fransen zijn extreem trots op hun taal en daarom is alles in het Frans. Op tv, radio, in het ziekenhuis, bij de dokter, zelfs toeristische informatiepunten, informatieborden en veel meer. Met Engels kom je buiten Parijs of een andere grote stad niet ver. In mijn land wonen mensen die na 10 jaar nog de nationale taal niet beheersen en dan alsnog zullen mijn landgenoten overschakelen naar het Engels. In Frankrijk heb je gewoon enorme pech want niemand zal zich aan jou aanpassen.
