Working abroad over the summer is a great way to earn money, gain work experience and explore another country. Employers usually recruit for seasonal roles from March through to the summer, so it’s important to keep checking job websites as vacancies can appear, and close, quickly.
If you’re planning to travel, make sure you do your research. Check entry rules, visa requirements and safety information before you go. Visit Foreign travel advice - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk) for the latest guidance.
