Hello rdx.

Welcome to Expat.com :)

In which sector are you looking for a job? You may consult the offers in the job in Paris section or even post your resume there.

You have also the housing in paris section, where you may also post an advert.

You may also browse the other discussion on the Paris Forum for better insights.

These 2 articles might also help > Study in France and Accommodation in France.

Thanks and all the best.

Karen  :)

Hi!

1. how to find work fast?(internet or in paris)
The best is to find over the internet but to have a parisian adress in the CV you will send (because it gives the feeling that you could be more reachable/available for an interview)

2. if i work at paris, can i pay for a studio,university,food and transport?
Of course you can, otherwise most of the students will live on the streets! :) Joke aside, it is difficult to find a rent in Paris if you don't have a sponsor (someone who legally accepts to cover you in case you don't pay your rent). I think it is the more tricky part for foreigners.
