Will I be able to find a job in Haiti?

Answer this Question

When we asked people about industries and career opportunities in Haiti, they reponded...

"Foreigners often have jobs in Haiti related to international aid and development, such as working for non-governmental organizations, providing medical assistance, or teaching English. They may also work in the tourism industry, providing services such as tour guiding or hotel management. Other jobs that foreigners may have in Haiti include working in the agricultural sector, providing technical assistance, or working in the construction industry," remarked another expat in Haiti.

"Main local industry is textile, farming, UN work, NGO work. For the expat, this would be to main area...other than medical and teaching. Haiti is unforgiving unless you have existing commitment from existing entity. The common Local worker earns only about two US dollars per day. Skilled local workers such as plumbers, carpenters, masons, etc. may make around eight to fifteen US dollars per day. Jobs are generally found through the UN, NGO's, International recruiters, and local knowledge of who, what, when, where....and who to contact. If you lack the local networking...only international recruitment is the likely source," said a member in Petion-ville, Haiti.
