I need some peptalk to go out and get That job that will make me happy. Any jobseeking advice to give me? It does get abit more complicated as my native language isn't portuguese but swedish and secondly english eventhough I speak poruguese fluently. Give me you best advice, how did you find your job? *of course I would love to work from home....*

Well, the best motivation is not being able to pay your bills. I go into total panice when there are bills to pay and I can't pay them. I don't want to go hungry or have the lights turned off either. So I guess thinkign of worst case scenarios like that could motivate you. Get off your bum, get out there and do something!!

I would search with translation services. Work with tourists is also good. Airports, traveling agency and translation. Many online companies are looking for translators.

firstly i think you have to think what do you really want to do in yourself. What is your specialization, your interest and what do love to do? Go on and seek job related to your interest and if you speak portuguese fluently thats a good advantage for you, because everybody doesnt know how to speak that way, for example a chinesse lady dont know how to speak portuguese right? so thats one of a big asset you have in you. So start pondering that. You'll soon gonna find job as soon you figure out what do you really want in yourself? what are your interests? and where youre good at?
