Washington, DC - Post Report Question and Answers

What types of jobs do most expatriate spouses/partners have? Locally based or telecommuting? Full-time or part-time? Can you comment on local salary scales?

For sure. You have a really big chance of employment while in DC doing anything you want. - May 2016


Yes. However, make sure you have a visa which allows you to work and the requisite work permit. Most companies will not even consider you for interview if you don't have a work permit. Pay is good. Work can be challenging and rewarding - or not. But there are thousands of jobs available in most sectors (lawyers, doctors, and nurses with foreign qualifactions have significant problems getting them recognised). - Jun 2006
