I think that you need dutch. You can also sent a spontaneous candidature to international companies. If you want to check the sites for a job: leforem.be , vdab.be , actiris.be (the regional site) ...and others - imo better site to find a job are : stepstone.be , indeed.be , references.be and optioncarriere.be. Good luck :)

Thanks to all.

To live in a foreign country.I know how important it is to learn the local language.I need it to survive.to have a better future.but.for some reasons I really need a job urgently.even if  I have to stop dutch lesson for now.I've checked some Chinese restaurant but they are all far from my home and work till very very late.they requested me to live in the restaurant.I have a family here.it doesn't matter how late I have to work to.but I hope at least when I finish I can go back home,see my family.I just hope I can be lucky to get a job as soon as possible.


Best wishes for all foreigners live in Belgium

which city are you living in? i am also a chinese, it's really difficult for a foreigner to find a job in here. But if you have a local diploma it's easier, i think you got resident card in here, so make a long-term planning to study.

Learn the language(s). That's the best you can do!
You can do this not only by going to classes or studying books but by speaking it every day. Try to meet people and speak Dutch/French and not English. People will help you!
Become a member of a club. Sports, social events? Participate in society and you will learn very fast!

Good Luck!
