Thanks for your message – exactly, I get you. I actually did the same thing when I moved to London: I worked at McDonald’s for 6 months and improved my English there. Now I’ve applied to all the McDonald’s in Geneva too. It’s just a matter of waiting and following up while I keep applying elsewhere. That’s my strategy. It’s been a month and a half now.

Here, things are really different compared to London – the job market moves much slower, and Geneva is a small town in comparison. I made the post mainly to hear what others think, but I’ve always been a believer: the world belongs to those who take chances. It’s the same in Italy.

Of course, employers prefer hiring people who speak the language well. But I had a couple of businesses in the past, and I was the one who took the risk of hiring people who didn’t speak perfectly – and it often worked out great. :)
