I am interested to relocate to Denmark to search for employment. I am not sure if I could find anything suitable as a PE teacher and a football coach. In fact, I might be willing to work in a hotel reception with English only. Is it possible at all what I try to accomplish?

Hello,
My name is Irene. I plan to move to Denmark next month and seek employment. I speak fluent english and have wonderful smile. I have background in Business. How soon can I get a job in a hotel as receptionist and maybe a room as part of my employment? Any help would be useful.

Thanks.

Hi.
I am from Denmark, currently living in Cape Town, South africa.
It is NOT easy to move to Denmark and get a job if you do not speake Danish, working in a reception you need to speak danish. Only very specialised corporate jobs or medical proficionals and the like can you get away with not speaking danish. I would recomend you both to check out www.um.dk to see the specifications for obtaining visas.

Regards Sarah

Hi Agboy.

It is not going to help you that you speek and write english well, if you want to work in a hotel in denmark you NEED to speak Danish. I do not know much about production crews, but I think you will need Danish there as well. As I wrote before go to um.dk and se what is required for you to get a working visa or a green card.
