is there any work in Greece?
i am an american citizen, i have always wanted to move to greece. i love the people that i have met from there, i have never been but i have seen pictures, and since i was a little kid i have wanted to move there for several reasons. i only have labor experience from working in a factory in the summer transition from high school to college, and i do not have much other work experience because i was an athlete in high school and i did'nt really have time so how is the job market in greece? i know it depends from city to city but its cool with me, whatever you can tell me is cool. what kind of work is there in greece? do they have any cheap colleges in greece? i hope i do not sound ignorant or foolish for asking these questions, but i am just curious, and i dont know anything about the countries economy, and by my previous question i was asked if i was middle eastern, no i am not middle eastern. so please help if you can give me some good information on my questions. thanks to anyone who can help

If you don't speak Greek how you expect to find a job in Greece? Only in Tourism you have some chance !!

There is a similar question also posted currently in this section, so I'll give the same answer that I gave the other: Questions to you, Mister Questioner (and please don't take offense, I'm just trying to give you a heads-up): 1)Do you have any Greek blood in you yourself (i.e., are your parents or grandparents Greek)? 2) Do you have a residency permit for any EU country already? 3) Will you obtain a visa (a work visa or student visa) prior to arrival in Greece? If you have no Greek heritage, have no current EU residency permit or citizenship, have no work visa or student visa for Greece, then you are only allowed to live in Greece technically for 90 days, at which point you must leave the E.U. for 90 days before you may return. Also, during those 90 days you will not be allowed to LEGALLY work (and finding illegal work is becoming more and more difficult). Be aware that visas must be obtained through the Greek embassy in the country of your nationality prior to your arrival in Greece (so in your case, at the Greek embassy or a Greek consulate in the USA). You are not able to obtain visas from within Greece. Obtaining a residency permit while in Greece is contingent upon having either 1) Greek heritage, 2) EU citizenship/a current EU residency permit, 3) a valid visa, or 4) a marriage with an EU citizen. To acquire a work visa, you would first have to find a company located in Greece willing to hire you and do all the necessary paperwork and pay all the required expenses. The process generally takes upwards of a year. Due to the fact you have virtually no work experience and (presumably) don't speak Greek, finding a company to hire you is basically an impossibility. It's almost impossible even for those non-Greek Americans who have lots of work experience and do speak Greek. The easiest route to go, then, is through a student visa. You'd first need to find a Greek university that has open places for foreign students, and where courses are taught in English (since, once again, I'm assuming you don't speak Greek). If you find such a university (they do exist), then you just go through the application and enrollment process as structured by the university; once accepted, you'll be sent the necessary papers in order to obtain a student visa. Note that in the case of your coming to Greece for studies, however, that once your studies end, so too will your legal residency in Greece. At that point either you'd have to obtain a work visa or a new student visa, or be married to an EU or Greek citizen.

It sounds like you do not already have a green card or any sort of work permit lined up. In that case, you will not be able to do this. You would need a visa valid for employment. That means an H visa. While you meet the advanced degree requirement for an H visa, you still will not be able to get one. An employer would have to prove that there are no Americans who can do your job before they could get a visa for you. They will not be able to do that. Your degree is a dime a dozen. There are thousands of out of work Americans with your degree who could do the job you want. There is no way that you can get a visa while that is still true.
