I will be in Europe, either Italy or France next year studying abroad, and I think a great way to learn the language would be to have a part time job. I've heard this is difficult, anyone know? If I am placed in Italy I will probably apply for an internship/job for my photography, which maybe would be easier because it is a skill. Anyway any help is great. Thanks!
To work in the EU, you'll need a work permit or visa. EU employers often resist hiring someone without a visa, because the sponsorship process is slow and there's no guarantee a visa will be granted, explains Robert Poll, a consultant in the finance division of London-based banking and investment recruiter Jonathan Wren & Co. Ltd.
But there is a loophole for some. "If you have ancestral history in the EU or UK, then you may be eligible to work here," Poll says. Simply put, if you're entitled to a passport from any EU country, then you can most likely work in any other EU country. The process involves gathering a mountain of paperwork. You may need certified birth, death and/or marriage certificates from the home country, as well as passports and other official documents, to support your application.
