Job opportunities for Americans in Thailand?

If you hold a Thai passport then it will be no problem, almost all companies in Thailand are looking for people who have degrees, and if its from an overseas institution its a big plus. Look for major corporations, like IBM and HP ect.

There are a lot of international companies looking for fresh graduates that are Thai and can speak English fluently. Be sure to check JobsDB.com where you should have no problem finding a job.

A lot depends on your passport(s). If you hold only an US passport, pretty difficult. All kinds of restrictions apply to prevent foreigners getting a job in Thailand. Even so, the fact you are fluent in English and Thai will be attractive for Thai companies.

If you also hold Thai nationality, the above restrictions do not apply and you can - I think - easily find a job.

BUT .......... in Thailand Thais get paid Thai wages. Not Wall Street salaries. Consider a salary of Bt. 40.000 pretty good, 60.000 very good and anything above unattainable unless you have really special talents.

Not much, I'm telling you. With a million bankers unemployed at the moment, don't see any large opportunity for you here or even in NYC.

check the bkk post classifieds if you can - there are plenty of places that advertise - - hotel industry, for one - or you might try an international bank like HSBC - - good luck -
