Good morning, at least still in the Intermountain West and we got snow over the weekend. Oh well, that is normal here for Memorial Weekend.
I have come to realize it is going to be tougher to get a job in Argentina that I originally thought. However, that just means I work in some exotic places where they look for oil and gas for another year.
I am not trying to be some starry-eyed person who is making unreal expectations. I am very grounded in my "2 year plan" and I plan to visit Argentina right after school is done in Dec. Then start getting my feet wet there over the next year and 1/2.
Many US firms in the oil and gas industry in the "exotic" locations hire people for 1 to 2 months at a time. Then you are home for the same amount of time. The money is extremely good. One individual I know does this in the States and makes a great living and that is by US standards. Well, I was wondering if it is something I could do if I lived in Argentina. I need to start establishing the contacts within the next couple of months, according to my advisor at school, if I looked to get hired by one of these firms soon after school is done.
I was wondering if anyone or possibly someone you know live in Argentina "permanently", but works part of the time out of the country vs. trying to get a work visa there. I know people who do it in other countries, but no one in Argentina. You spend a majority of your time in the country, but are gone about 3 to 4 months out of the year working overseas. Would this arrangement screw up the chances for a temporary residence visa then the possibility of a permanent resident visa?
Have a great day everyone.
