Other popular job opportunities for foreigners in Medellin include working in the retail industry, as well as in the construction and engineering fields," said another expat in Medellin, Colombia.
"In terms of expat opportunities, Medellin is becoming known as a prime location from which to do telecommuting work. People also come hoping to teach English here although pay is not particularly good. However, i know a man who is teaching English to children via internet in China so there are a lot of opportunities. If a person wants to work here, it would be essential to have a working knowledge of Spanish. I get along in English quite well, however, i am very limited not knowing Spanish," wrote a member who made the move to Medellin, Colombia.
