Would you like to do business with Italy?

25/5/2022

Despite some of the challenges Italy faces, such as high public debt, low growth and regular political change, it also has some contrary elements such as low private debt and a sophisticated manufacturing base. Northern Italy is amongst the wealthiest regions in Europe.  As the third largest economy in the Eurozone, Italy is home to some major multinationals and has a large sophisticated consumer market. The industrial sector is characterised by Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) and family businesses, often with a strong regional focus. While subject to EU regulations, there is often local regulations which must adhered to. (reference www.Austrade.gov.au.  Italy's export industry includes motor vehicles, chemicals, energy, food and fashion but many employees working in Italy find themselves in the hospitality and tourism industries. This industry is really important to Italy as the country has an annual 46 million visitors.
Picture
If you are looking for employment in the service industry there are more job offers in the north, whereas the south is a little more rural based. As said above from the Austrade information, Northern Italy is amongst the wealthiest region in Europe.  According to www.internations.org, some typical fields of employment which include automotive engineering, the chemical industry, construction, electronics, finance, and logistics are struggling. However, the tourism industry appears to have stabilized, and there are still job opportunities in green technology, food and drinks, as well as mechanical engineering.
Picture
If you would like to work in Italy however, you must ensure you have acquired for yourself a social security number and some health insurance. The social security application will only need to be applied for in a single instance. Your Italian employer will also have to register you with social security. If you are wanting to work in Italy under your own self employment idea you must apply for a work visa. You need to commence working on this long before you entered the country and starting your new business.
Picture
If you are looking for a job in Italy, outside specific foreign assignment, you need to be prepared for the reality that employment openings are usually given to the Italians.  It can be very useful however, to offer a certain skill or expertise in some area which may be struggling to meet the qualified labour need. Whatever you consider to be your plan, it would be beneficial to learn Italian before you go. Talk like a local and increase your job opportunities and total cultural experience of working in a foreign country.

Sydney man learned to mix learning with pleasure.

Like many enterprising executives, Paul, operations manager for a large software company based in Sydney, was surprised to find how much fun he had learning a new language. He learned to speak Japanese with VLLC to help him communicate with his Japanese colleagues after many interpreting issues during previous communications. 
Picture
Paul had tried unsuccessfully to learn Japanese by traditional classroom methods, but was inhibited by the grammar and by trying to translate the language word for word in his head, rather than allow it to flow freely, the VLLC way. VLLC's methodology is based on enjoying the learning experience through picture sound association.
​
Paul said "It's just like meeting a lot of new people from other countries and getting to know how they live, what they eat and drink - what makes them laugh - which is a great skill to have".

VLLC offers 13 languages in Japanese, Mandarin Chinese, Indonesian, Russian, Spanish, Italian, French, German, Greek, Thai, Arabic, Korean and English.
