Good morning

My name is junior from Cameroon, I would like to know if it is possible to arrive with a tourist visa and change it to a work visa?What to do once you are there with a tourist visa?Is it possible to find a job?

A tourist visa is usually issued for up to one month. The work visa processing time is longer in most cases, an the time needed to find a job can also be long. Therefore, it is very likely that you'd have to return home while waiting for the work visa application results.

Finding a job very much depends on your skills, education and work experience. Read related discussion threads on this forum for further inforation!
