Hello everyone,

I'm a Dutch wife and my Dutch husband has been offered a job in Pápa for three years. Because I also would like to work in Hungary we are thinking about living in Györ or Veszprém. Does anyone know if these cities have English speaking job opportunities for me? Or do you have to speak Hungarian to work in these cities. When we decide to move to Hungary I would definitely would take a Hungarian course, but in won't be that good to speak Hungarian at the workplace. Budapest would be too far away from Pápa, because my husband has to be at his job within an hour. I hope that someone could answer this question, it would help me a lot!

That's a real problem. With unemployment, lack of language skills you won't get a job in the local market.
Unless you do on line translation, write a book or travel articles etc., you may be out of luck. Your best chance is Papa and a NATO job! Good luck!

There are universities in both towns that have some international presence and are often looking for English language skilled people. It may take a while though since a lot of job hunting is by word of mouth or recommendation. I work in Gyor and there are an increasing number of companies with international ties who need English speakers (and German, and others) to help with marketing/communications and other work.
