A question of work in Italy

7 years ago

Hey all,

I am preparing my application for Italian citizenship jure sanguinis (through my father born in Italy) as I may one day like to live there.

I am fluent in Italian and I have a BA in Psychology, working on an MA. If I truly do decide to work and live in Italy (which may be contingent on my success in getting into a PhD program in the States), it will most likely not be in the field of psychology due to the necessity of having to retake the licensing exam in Italy and lack of development of the field of psychology in the country. Maybe I'd rather do something in marketing, in which I have some experience and would plan to accrue more before immigrating.

My question is, do my degrees in psychology prevent me from working in other fields in Italy? I know that the US is very flexible in terms of working in different fields. I'm just looking to understand my eligibility for employment in Italy, though I know the job market there is suffering.

Regards,
Ocio
