Will I be able to find a job in Johannesburg?

When we asked people about industries and career opportunities in Johannesburg, they reponded...

"Foreigners in Johannesburg often work in a variety of industries, including hospitality, retail, finance, IT, engineering, and healthcare. Many foreigners also work as English teachers, tour guides, and in other service-oriented roles. Additionally, there are many opportunities for foreigners to work in the creative industries, such as film, music, and design," remarked another expat who made the move to Johannesburg, South Africa.

"The main industries are extremely diverse from mining to banking as well as the fact that Joburg is probably the capital of southern Africa which brings in all the embassies, the UN, etc. I'm not sure how difficult it would be for a person trying to move here without a job. Because of affirmative action and Black Empowerment, finding a job (unless you are previously disadvantaged in this country) is probably tricky," explained one expat living in Johannesburg, South Africa.
