Moving to buy and live in Holland

Hey everyone! I’ve been thinking about making a big move to China, but I have to admit, I’m kind of clueless about the whole thing. I’m considering traveling there first to get a feel for the culture, cities, and maybe even the job market before committing to a permanent move. Has anyone here been to China? What were your experiences like?

Good day

I am moving to Oslo next week from the UK, I have recently received my Irish Citizenship making me an EU citizen again

I was moving and then registering as a job seeker.

My company has offered me (UK) to continue to work while living in Norway.

This brings up many questions:

Upon arriving in Norway you will be allowed to drive for 90 days on your current drivers license and then will have to retake your entire driving education and be forced to work with “Vegvesen” Norwegian equivalent of the DMV in the USA.  Expect no assistance and a blaze attitude where Americans are seen as people unable to drive a car or motorcycle.

I have been living in Ecuador for a few months now and I have the idea of studying a postgraduate degree to enhance my professional opportunities. I am thinking of studying at TECH University. I have looked for information and I have seen that you have the possibility of studying online, without timetables or classes and that the official qualifications they offer are validated by the Ecuadorian Ministry of Education. Has anyone studied at the university and can you tell me more about the study system and its contents? Thank you very much ;)

Hello, Could you please help me understanding if it is usual to start a recruitment process for a job in health care by paying a fee to the agency? And to pay another fee after 45 of taking the job and relocating to the place? I was approached by an agency who presented me this situation and I would like to know if it is normal or if it could be a scam. They claim the fee is to cover licences, visa, negotiation with employer, etc. It's a consultancy agency that recruit health care professionals to EAU.

Thank you.
