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

"Foreigners often work as English teachers, translators, professional in multinational companies, tour guides and hospitality staff in Indonesia. They may also be employed as IT professionals, healthcare workers, software developers, and business consultants. In addition, many foreigners are employed as freelance writers, photographers, and online entrepreneurs," explained one expat living in Indonesia.

"Oil, Gas, Mining, IT, Natural Resources. Indonesia is a BIG country and a very RICH country, that is managed very poorly. Most people come here either because they were transferred here by their companies or because they came here under contract. People either hate the place and cannot wait to leave, or fall in love with the place and the people and stay for extended periods," said another expat in Jakarta, Indonesia.
