I think it will be very difficult to find a job if you don't speak Norwegian. I have also heard that there is quite a lot of discrimination against Romanians, so my Romanian friends tell me at least. For example, I have been told that some people will not rent an apartment to someone from Romania.

Hi,to all,is very shame because there is this discrimination.Of course I understand that many romanian have not good intentions.Honest I would not  to leave my country but i and my wife we young and here is no chance for us.Now we have a personal business and deal with the sale of clothing and footwear but  can not resist this business.People are very poor here and the sales go wrong.We decided to work and live abroad for a while like many other Romanian maybe we could relaunch the business.Here we have no chance to find one job.I am a good plumber with 12 years experience in the fild of plumbing central heating and gas instalations.My wife not have one qualification but I think it does well in a home or child care.If you see more aboout us let be friend to facebook at facebook.com/borcan.daniel@facebook.com I told my facebook for you to see that their intentions are not bad people

I agree that it is terrible to discriminate against people in this way. There are many hard-working Romanians here though, who seem to make a living and enjoy living here, so it is possible. Certainly not all Norwegians discriminate, but I think it's worth mentioning. Moving to a country as expensive as Norway is a risk, although as with all risks, it can pay off.

Thanks dmcart13 helps me to hear encouragement.Sorry my english not so good.I must to learn much better if i find something to work.This is why I decided to look for a job somewhere where they speak English.I keep looking for work maybe i find something or a person who will give me a chance.Respectfully Daniel(DELIAN).
