      There are some jobs although most that I have seen require some years of experience. Also this type of positions are very urgent and they would most likely not wait until you get a visa. It may be a better idea to get into a starter position on a company and escalate to logistics.

      Renato Soriano Hola Renato! Uff el apostille en Mexico es un rollo! Todo depende de quien sea la autoridad emisora del documento. Ej mi título universitario lo emitió la SEP entonces lo tuve que hacer en CDMX (En las oficinas de Rio Amazonas 62).
      Antes de poder apostillarlo tuve que ir a la SEP a que pusieran una estampilla de que mi título es válido, en la DGAIR cerca de Centro Coyoacán.
      Aunque amigos mío que estudiaron en universidades estatales, pudieron apostillar sus títulos en las oficinas de Toluca.
      Para mi certificado de antecedentes no penales la certificación la hice en Toluca y fue mucho más fácil.

    I mean, you said i could take months for the Visa to be issued!

    Do their Job Offer still stands for you even after 4-6 Months abroad

    • @Fis4fun
      @Fis4fun  5 років тому

      Yes, that is correct. Most jobs that are willing to sponsor foreigners are doing so because they are really struggling to find qualified people to do the jobs. Also because since unemployement is so low in the czech republic there are more job offers than people to do the jobs, some companies are willing to wait, specially those that require teams of people with the same position (agents, developers, etc.)

      Hey! Yes you can, if you are on an employee card there was a recent change of the law where you only have to report changes to your employer or position 30 days before they happen and you can change employers without leaving the country. This change was made on Aug 1st. Before that you needed to get approval of the government to do so which was not impossible but definitely more problematic.

      The official waiting time for an employee card is 60 days for normal cases and 90 days for "complicated cases", while it is possible, they can take much longer (mine took almost 6 months). Bear in mind that the employee card is both a work permit and long term stay visa so you only need to apply for that one.

    Hello from czech republic, pls. stay where you are, do not come to our country, we do not want immigrants from non Slavic countries, we are racists and xenophobes, we think that Czech republic is only for Czechs, so that is the way why we do not have any black immigrants as the western Europe, we also do not provide any financial supports for non Eu and non Czech people, you need to speak fluently Czech to get some kind of low pay job. Do not waste your time in Czech Republic, you are not welcome.
