Re: Living in Brussels
Finding work depends very much on your language abilities in this multi-lingual country.In Belgium, around 60 per cent of jobs advertised in newspapers are aimed at Flemish speakers. The major daily newspapers are Le Soir, De Standaard, He laatste Nieuws and De Gazet van Antwerpen. There are also a range of recruitment agencies offering jobs at various levels. Headhunting agencies are also common in Belgium, but tend to specialise in executive positions.
