Hi Everyone,
I recently got interested in moving to Malta, but am still in the process of researching the working conditions and the opportunities for foreigners. I have worked in Croatia before, where culture is pretty similar, but I know that the government restrictions and policies can vary quite a lot.
I speak fluently English, German and Russian, unfortunately no Maltese 
. As far as I know, English is considered to be the second official language there, and was hoping that this could be a plus for me. I've been working in the IT sector, too.
Can someone advise whether it is possible for an EU citizen to find a job in Malta and which industries are recommended?
Thank you in advance.
best,
Work for foreigners in Malta

of course its possible to find a job here but its not easy - and its usually low paid..unless you are in a specific set of fields and have the right expeirences and qualifications within those fields - i.e Finance and IT to name two

Thank you for your reply toonarmy9752! That doesn't sound so bad. Well, I am a BG citizen, which supposedly could make things a bit harder for me, but I think I shall give it a try.
all the best,
Brina

There is actually a big plus for you in the fact that you can speak Russian...
At the moment the IT (Gaming) industry is looking a lot for Eastern European Languages for their customer service areas... you will be looking realistically at between 15-20K though Max.

What is your experience/expertise? And what was your previous job?
I am looking for an accountant or support person for my website from mid-February on, as I'll move my company to Malta then.
