Hi,

my name is felix and I am living in Ho Chi Minh City now for 1 1\2 month, and i wish i could stay much longer.
In germany i worked for a big advertising agency in account management also studied about marketing business. I also have experience with frontend development/web design.

But trying to find a job here is proving to be very hard... (As I have also read before)

Does anyone have an advice for me, to get a job here. I would also work as an english or german teacher, that i can stay longer.

Any help would be Awsome!

thanks

You have many options
Where do you live?
Until you get a full time - permanent job, you can do some freelance work as web designer, German Teacher or English Teacher.
You can start from expat-blog

I think you should apply for germany teaching. I dont have any idea about Germany teaching certificate so pls check it online.

About your marketing job, pls check job section. As you have bachelor/master degree, you will have more chances. Another website to check more: vietnamwork-jobstreet.

If you see any company needs employees, just apply for it nomatter if it is recruiting Vietnamese or expat. The salary can be from 9m.
