Applying for a job and working in Kuala Lumpur

maebwriter

My boyfriend is Malaysian and I am planning to move to Kuala Lumpur and work there. Is it very hard to find a job? I have a bachelors degree in Economics and I am about to finish my MA in Management. Any foreigner who wants to share info or thoughts about the current labor market situation in KL?

Thank you!

Before that it is better to know what foreign language that you speak :)

Gravitas

Call centre jobs with foreign languages required are about the only jobs you may be able to get. Rule of thumb - if a Malaysian has the experience then there is no need to employ a foreigner. That is why languages are the key. Qualifications are important as well.
