There are obviously many people who have completely wrong ideas about working and finding a job in Thailand. The most common mistake is the fact that they think they only have to show up at a few few companies or at the labour office and within a couple of days or so, they would have a job. This is certainly not the case. However, setting up a company is a costly thing and the company will also have to earn enough money to pay all wages and still make a significant profit. Otherwise your workpermit will not be renewed. So this solution might not fit everybody who come to live and work in Thailand. Other jobs as employee in a Thai company however, are very rare due to the existing restrictions on foreigners and you might only find one by beein a specialist in certain areas or by beeing there in Thailand an your place, know some people and imediately take a job whenever one is offered. The greatest chances to find a job in Thailand, in my opinion, is in the tourist industry and there again it is the easiest as a diving instructor. If you don't know what or for who to work in Thailand, I recomend to move to and live in Thailand for some time, know some people, keep eyes and ears open an take a job that is offered and suits you. This will not be the case in days or a couple of weeks, it can take many weeks or even month to have a job offered. Please also be aware, that you will never find a job in Thailand as a car mechanic, handy man, carpenter or any other common job. This jobs are reserved for Thai people and prohibited for foreigners by law.
