I am planning to move to Rio de Janeiro with my partner who is getting transfered through his Canadian company. I am a social worker in Canada and I don't speak Portuguese ...yet.

I'm not having any luck finding job prospects online and I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions or knows of any non-government organizations or voluntary organizations that would be hiring English speakers in Rio?

I would appreciate any responses!

Thanks

Try this website:

It´s a platform for voluntary work.

But I´m not sure about the chances for English speakers!?

GOOD LUCK!
