Questions

No. Employers choose candidates after the interviews. We contact you when your experience matches a role, but we cannot promise a job or a date.
Is the visa guaranteed?
No. Visas and residence permits are decided by the Portuguese consulate and immigration authorities. We help you prepare a complete application.
What do I need?
Experience in the trade you apply for, working English, and a valid passport for the visa stage. Each offer lists its own requirements.
Do I need to send my CV or documents now?
No. Do not send passport copies or other documents through this page. A recruiter will ask for what is needed, only through our official contacts, and only at the stage it is needed.
