Excerpted from the Brazil Career Guide
A number of professional organizations, networking associations, trade
unions, publications, websites and other resources are available to foreigners
seeking work in Brazil. For example, Conjuntura Economica, a monthly Portuguese
publication, covers economic and business conditions in Brazil, including
price indices in different sectors, financial markets, employment, statistics
and data for the 500 major Brazilian companies. Exame, published bi-weekly,
is a widely circulated magazine that provides information on economic
trends, business, industry, management, and focuses on various national
financial developments.
Expatriates
can search newspapers and online telephone directories for valuable business
information and classified ads. The website for Listas OESP (in Portuguese
only) offers free posting of business information and is searchable by
category. It also provides links to useful phone numbers, classified ads,
and more. Most major cities also feature clubs and societies for specific
foreign nationals. The American Club of Rio de Janeiro and the American
Society of São Paulo are good networking resources for job-seekers
from the United States.
This is just a sample of what you'll find in the complete guide.
