Jobs in Iraq

Monday June 14, 2004
Despite the danger, there is quite a bit of interest in Iraq job opportunities. Billions of dollars have been allocated to construction and reconstruction projects throughout Iraq. Salaries are high and the lure of making more money that one could sometimes make in years at home is hard to resist.

(19) eddie says:

Hello, Kale from Iraq-Kurdistan. It is outstanding that you want to work in your country as translator. So please proofread your writing. As for pc and internet, your typing seems horrible. Why should I hire you?

July 27, 2008 at 5:56 pm
(20) eddie says:

Dear Srusht from suleimania,
Please show some confidence and self esteem in yourself. Just because you really need the money is not going to make anyone hire you. Also if you appear that desperate for a job during the interview, you will probably be paid a lower wage than your peers because as an employer we know you will work cheap. So instead explain how you can be a valuable asset to any company working in Iraq and do not seem so desperate. Masalama!
