Working In Colombia

As is the case with most South American countries, it is generally very difficult to find work in Colombia because Colombian nationals are eager for employment and so even the lowest paying positions are often taken up. Most opportunities for working experiences will be found in either teaching English or volunteering.

Work Teaching English as a foreign language in schools and language institutions can be found particularly in Medellin and Bogota. A TEFL qualification is usually neccesary.

There are many opportunities to volunteer throughout Colombia including conservational and community development projects.
