Work in Kolkata

World_Refugee · May 7th, 2008, 07:47

Just a research question. I am considering moving next year to either Dhaka (Bangladesh) or Kolkata. The thing I have noticed in other countries I have lived in is that the only job a person like me with no quilafications can get is teaching english. Is there any other type of job I can get other than this in Kolkata or if anyone knows in Dhaka? Thanks in advanced.

You are lucky to teach English without qualificationsin Kolkata you would require one.

you will get voluntary positions with NGOs to teach English to slum kids etc. this will not pay or may be pay a very small amount.

for any kind of formal teaching (as Amitava said), you need qualifications.

Look in Free Ads, there are plenty of Odd jobs about, depends on what you want. In Kolkata there are more people and less jobs.
