Hi ladyjolanda11,

Thank you for opening this very interesting topic. Langages are indeed very important in Luxembourg.

From my experience, it is totally possible to find a job there if you can speak English, but no French, German or Luxembourgish. It only depends what kind of job you are looking for.

French / German / Luxembourgish is always a plus, but it's also possible to learn one of this langages once you are living in the country - we have many courses.

Does this answer your question?

Thank you!

Lauranne
