Had it not been illegal for me as a foreigner to work in a massage place I had done it myself. I do it plenty of times for my friends here anyway, but yeah... it´s not really legal, and I don´t speak Thai to understand the mostly Thai customer visitting your massage place.

Could have been a nice hobby until you find other staff. Okay, but I think the best suggestion has been given already. There are many places where you can hang your post for free. At the Villa Market at Phrom Phong seems popular and I often see Thai stand and read the posts.

I wonder why massage schools did not respond to your call, as they must be full of young students in need of work.

In case you need any Marketing/ Promotion done for your new Marketing place, let me know.

Good luck with everything. Let me know if I can help.

Hello all,

It may have been asked before, but maybe it´s not up to date anymore. My question is simple, where can I find a reliable and good dentist in Bangkok?

It should be one that speaks good English/German/ Danish. What I am looking for is rutine-check and tooth whitening. I heard good things about Silom Dental Building?

I hope you can help me.

Kind regards,

Bjoern

Dear reader,

hence to my changing job situation I am about to move to Bangkok for a yet unknown timeframe (between 1-3 years).

Currently I live in a hotel, which is nice, but insanely expensive compared to some of the countless condo´s I see advertisements for everywhere.

Since my Thai is still limited I find it a little difficult to read the advertisements.

Here is what I look for:

Condo or Mansion or Apartment (preferably fully furnished (or partly))

Price range 5- 12.000 (plus expenses for electricity, water etc.)

Should be situated near BTS or MRT

I work near BTS Nana, so if it could be around the area it would be brilliant

If you would know anyone that has a suggestion, please let me know.

I am new to Bangkok, so please accept my perhaps naive approach. If you have questions, please let me know.

Kind regards,

Bjoern

Welcome to Thailand, I hope you enjoy your stay. Good luck getting a job.

Thank you. I sure think that my stay will be wonderful and full of experiences. I hope that I in the end will find a good job in Bangkok. I mean, real jobs - not like many of those I already got offered. Some of them are okay, but will be a bit risky regarding salary, as there would be no base salary (only commission based). I have to rely on the job-interviews I have when I arrive and others that may come up during my stay.

Welcome to Bangkok.

By the way, what kind of German 'bear' are you?

This one. That´s me. In full beauty.

Recently graduated and looking for a job in a new country within 30 days.

Good luck you need lots of it.

Yep, that´s the situation. Is that taking any of my motivation? No. Do I travel to Bangkok totally unprepared? No. Do I have job-interviews there, when I arrive? Yes. So, sure. I might need luck, but what is even more important is to have hope, patience and trust in my choice.

Not taking a risk would not even get me a job here in good old Germany, or Denmark as the grass is not greener here either.

I think that my chances are even both places (low), so why not try to find myself a job on a market that is interesting for me and then take it from there.

If I find no job within 30 days then I try somewhere else. If I am not open to anything and just doubt everything before I try, then I might never find out what possibilities there are out there. I bet Columbus never thought: "Oh, the priests are probably right. I should just accept what they say is true and forget about what I believe in myself". He took a risk and had succees. Yet I might not discover new lands or become famous like him, but at least I may discover new experiences for me that I would not have gotten in front of my computer screen here - and become happy and achieve a fulfilling job and life.

I am a bit confused. Are you coming to town with the circus?

Yes, I am bringing the whole circus. Let´s just say that.

I never said I had good humor. At least I tried.

Welcome to the Land of Smiles

.

Thank you..

Yeah, it´s true. I am coming to Bangkok. It is not a big happening as when Lady Gaga comes or any Rock Band - but hey, I can party like a Rock Star as well, but not sing as Lady gaga. Then again, my Karaoke skills are famous, but I don´t remember - as I am usually drunk when I am singing.

Am I drinking a lot? Sure no, as where I come from (Flensburg, Germany) our clubs are like quite small rooms with a lot of shy/stuck up people, who rather keep to themselves while partying.

So who am I? Why am I calling myself Bear?

"He is weird" may be the first thing that comes to mind when you read my post. For me live is about having fun and doing things while I am still capable of it, that is personally and professionally.

My name is Bjørn, which translated from Norwegian and Danish means Bear. I am 29 and an adventurer. I live to travel and to get to know new cultures and people.

Germany became quite boring to me, and so did Denmark. I just recently graduated my double degree in International Sales and Marketing Management, and am now searching for a job - out there. I am going to Bangkok to find myself a job as I feel and read, that there still is a lot of place for improvement in the world of Marketing, Sales and especially Business Development. Just the right place where my innovative ideas can find a place to thrive and party.

I have been born and raised in Germany, lived there for 12 years, then moved to Denmark, where I lived for 17 years, to now be back in good old Germany prior to my upcoming travel to Bangkok.

So, what is the purpose of this post?

It is not meant as the "look at me" post it may look like, but as I realized how few (1) friend I have in Bangkok, it would be so much more fun to meet new people while there. You don´t have to be a farang, but if you speak English it is always a plus, to avoid google-translate-conversations.

I would like to meet people from all over the world. Of course also listen to your stories about how Bangkok is treating you, what to avoid and what to enjoy while there.

My goal is to end up with a job after the 30 days in Bangkok. It is an ambitious, maybe a bit naive goal, but it is however my passion to go to Bangkok for work. Am I different than many other foreigners who seek their luck and new life in Bangkok? Maybe not. But I am sure not going there for the sun, the sex or the cheap living.

I am coming to enhance my professional experience internationally, and if that ends up with a permanent job, and I stay there and get old there - hey, why not?

So, boys and girls, feel free to throw a message at me (keep the tourches in the room) here on Thaivisa. My Inbox is hungry.

(It is also hungry for job-offers, or networking opportunities, so don´t be shy)

By the way. I am staying there from June 1st to July 1st and will stay in several areas during my stay.

Best wishes and with the hope to see you in Bangkok soon,

Bjørn Kristensen

I hear so much about it, read about it online. If you want to find a job abroad fast, it seems, then you better start off by teaching.

I am about to go to Bangkok for a job-hunting trip. I have been applying for countless jobs, but when it came to Skype meetings the process has haulted due to either bad connection or time difference. I decided to make it easier for the employer, and come to them - if they rudely enough not even offer to come to Germany for a job-interview.

The things is, one job I got offered a lot of times is as a teacher. As you might have noticed however, I am not a native English speaker, and my Thai is at the Sawasdee level. Therefore I can´t see how I could actually be a useful teacher. My professional background is in Marketing, Sales, Business Development and Customer Service.

However, teaching English (or German) in Thailand is not something I would throw away if I had the opportunity - at least as a starting point. But I won´t just do it just to have a job. No student deserves a teacher who is only teaching with half of his heart and mind.

I wonder, is there someone out there who is a teacher, reading this forum, who maybe could show me how the world of the English teacher in Thailand is actually like?

Someone who can explain me the benefits and disadvantages, or even take me to work, if possible? While there, I could of course offer my help for free.

My goal is to see how the life of the typical English teacher is like in Thailand, and if that would actually be something for me. It should have some win-win to it, as I could see myself teaching for a while, to enhance my people skills, but the student has to be in the center. If he is not learning from me, and I turn out to be a bad teacher, I am no value for that certain someone.

I could have accepted many English teacher positions already, some real, some fraud - but I just won´t do it before I actually know how I can best help, what the advantages and disadvantages are.

I hope that there is a helping soul out there, willing to enlighten me.

Kind regards,

Bjørn Kristensen

Dear reader,

The time has come and next week (June 1st) I will be landing in Bangkok to begin my one month job-seeking journey.

A long preparation time is now about to be finished, several applications has been sent, some answered and some not. One could argue why I start the journey to Thailand without having any addresses to go to, but believe me when I say that I have plenty of plans and the right motivation for this journey.

What do I seek in Bangkok?

As I am a recent graduate, with a double degree in International Sales and Marketing Management I now seek for my first challenge and opportunity professionally. The choice of Bangkok as a market to work with is simply that I still do see a lot of chances for development that I don´t see in my own country anymore. I see lot of spaces for improvements, but also see a lot of topics where I could see the Western companies benefit from the Asian working culture.

I see Bangkok as a hub for Asian and Western business, and unlike China the chances for continuous growth is yet unlimited.

Hence to prior research about Thailand, which was underlined with a vacation for some time ago, I still lack some more knowledge about the culture, work life and possibilities and restrictions locally. And where to better get to know that if not Bangkok itself? The Internet can only show me a lof of different facts and opinions, but instead I like to take matters in my own hands and look for myself what is actually true and not.

I know there are a lot of restrictions about us foreigners working in Thailand, but I think that if the motivation is right and the right portion of patience is there, then everything can be achieved. Call me naive, call me a dreamer - but I believe that in order to do extraordinary things it takes extraordinary measures.

Long story short, here I come Bangkok.

What is the purpose of this post besides announcing my arrival? As this is a forum for job-seekers I likewise would like to express my wish for a job and will gladly provide you with details about my person, copies of my diploma and application, if you, or someone in your community/network should be in the position of hiring new staff.

At the end some short facts about me:

My name is Bjørn, which is a nordic name and in English means Bear. I am 29 years old, of german-danish nationality and have been living in Germany for 12 and Denmark for 17 years. Currently I live in Germany again, to prepare for my mission of living and working abroad.

I have been studying at the International Business Academy and hold a AP degree in Marketing and a double degree in International Sales and Marketing Management, as stated earlier.

In my spare time I spend quite a lot of time reading books in café´s, playing badminton, going fishing, bowling or writing on blogs. I spend time on helping SME´s with Business Development, Marketing and Sales- strategy.

I am highly Entrepreneurial and Innovative thinking and especially spend a lot of time finding cheap and unconventional ways of doing Marketing for SME`s.

I am quite excited about Guerilla Marketing, Green Marketing, Affiliate Marketing, Body Language and Culture studies.

Before this post is reaching the size of a book I will end it here, but if you should have any questions about me or my background, please don´t hesitate to write a PM here.

Kind regards,

Bjørn

I could bring you one from good old Germany when I come to Bangkok in about a week.

Give me a message on: //e-mail removed - use PM// if you should be interested.

Humm...only like 10000 hotels in Bangkok...where to start.

Let´s start with the good and cheap ones...

Dear reader,

first of all you may annoyedly think that what is a good hotel, and why can the editor of this message not be more specific from the beginning. Sorry for that.

What is a good hotel? I am basically looking for a normal room with a working AC, at least basic English speaking staff and if it would have a safe, breakfast included and maybe transfer from the airport to the hotel I would not complain either.

I am not necessarily looking for luxury, as the purpose of my trip is not about vacation, but merely a job-seeking trip.

I have a friend near saphankwai sky station, so if you would know good hotels you have good experiences with, then I would gladly hear from you.

I have been on www.agoda.com and been looking, been reading the forums for a while and I see that mostly it is suggested to say near Sukumvit.

The plan is to start off at the place near my friends place and then find different hotels during my 4 week stay, also in Sukumvit.

Since the purpose of my trip is not party or vacation I think there is no need for staying close to the tourist areas. If however you know a good hotel close to these areas that is rather cheap, then please send me a message.

As I am a recent graduate I am not in the position to stay at 5 star hotels, so my savings should be enough for this 4 week trip.

Is it possible to get below 1000 baht a night, and still not live in a room with only 3 walls, a lot of bugs and without having to share the room with a lot of strangers?

If you have questions, which you might have, as I have not been very clear in this message - please feel free to ask.

I hope to be able to book the hotels within the upcoming 2 days. I will travel to Bangkok next thursday and arrive friday.

Kind regards,

Bjørn Kristensen

Hello everyone.

Thanks for your all your helpful replies. I decided to book my hotel and flight separately and am now only looking for a rather cheap, but good hotel in Bangkok. I have started a new forum entry for that.

Once again, thank you all for your replies.

Kind regards,

Bjørn Kristensen

Hi everybody,

I am planning a job-hunting trip to Bangkok at the end of this month. I am planning to fly from Hamburg, Germany at the end of May (30st, 31st May or 1st or 2nd June) and I will be staying for 30 days.

However, I have been struggling with booking the right ticket for days now, and I therefore hope that some of you here maybe can help me suggest websites that offer flight + hotel at the same time?

I found some german websites, but there the maximum days of travel is 22 days and I want to stay for 30 days.

I have also been seeking just flights, but I then found out that booking the hotel at the same time brings the price down on the hotel. Then again, I would be "locked" to that hotel for the entire stay - but it´s a gamble.

It is my first time in Bangkok, not my first trip alone. I think choosing the solution with flight + hotel also has the benefit of transfer from the airport to the hotel instead of encountering possible communication problems or frauds at the airport when going with taxi´s (I heard too many stories).

I hope that some of you here can suggest some websites for combining the flight with the booking of the hotel. If you have other solutions, suggestions please let me know.

I will have to book as fast as possible, as the prices are rising, so any reply asap would be great.

Thanks in advance.

I´ll be paying with cold beer and/ or coffee OR the poison of your choice when in Bangkok for those who are interested and willing to help.

Kind regards,

Bjørn Kristensen

Dear reader,

I am writing this post on this forum as I am looking for a job in Thailand, which hence to the topic title not should be shocking.

I know that many foreigners are looking for a job in Thailand, whether it is because of a permanent relocation or just temporary - to expand their career or just to get some insights of a totally different culture.

Maybe I should start off by introducing myself. My name is Bjørn (english translation: Bear) and yes - it is my real name. I was born and raised in Germany, where I have been living for the first 13 years of my live before the entire family relocated to Denmark, hence to my dads changing job situation. My dad is Danish and my mum is German, so I was very fortunate to grow up with both languages and of course both nationalities.

I have been studying Marketing and Sales since 2007 and now, after I graduated as a Bachelor in International Sales and Marketing Management I seek for new challenges and opportunities.

Of course I would love to work within my field of study - as I think that I can help future employers companies´ the most with my newly attained knowledge and talents. If that would not be possible I would also be interested working as a German, Danish or English teacher or do translations for you.

Besides having learned about Traditional Marketing nationally and internationally I have been learning very much about International Sales, Business Law, Logistics, Organization, PR and Communication, Financial Management, Innovation, Global Economy and Global Communication to only name a few of the fields. In my last semester I went for an internship in Santiago, Chile where I helped a newly started company called Pick a Student with all the Marketing and Sales preparation work prior to the launch of the company. I did create Marketing and Sales plans, develop Strategies, establish partnerships and joint ventures, help with overall Business Development and helped launching a school for local Chileans, in order to help them remove their fear of starting and running their own business(es).

Since Chile I have been highly passionate about helping SME´s with their Business Development and have myself "flirted" with the start-up of my own companies. However, it ended up becoming concepts until I maybe some day will find a partner and the necessary funding.

Currently I am unemployed and can not "show off" with too much working experience, as there simply was no time for work within my field simultaneously with the studies. Besides that, who ever knows Kolding, Denmark somehow -s/he will know that there are not too many jobs lying around for students.

However, not to make this post bible-sized here will come some "cold facts" and personal attributes about me and my skills:

Highly motivated, passionate and driven for any kind of project. You have the product/service - I market it and make it a success.

Highly Entrepreneurial minded, so if you have a project or some kind of challenges, I can help you with your Business Development, Marketing or Sales Strategies and/or campaigns.

My specialities within Marketing: Green-, Guerilla, - Online and Affiliate Marketing.

Multilingual: I speak German and Danish fluent, English on a professional level and Spanish on a basic level. I am currently working like a horse on learning Thai.

Salary expectations: Local Standards. So don´t worry. I am not seeking to make your company bankrupt, nor do I expect a special salary only because the European salary level is on the high-end. I want to be able to survive there and have a decent live. I am not looking for living like a king over there, but not necessarily as a peasant either. The golden middle would be good for me.

Attached to this entry/post you will find my Open Application where you will find all the necessary information about me. If however there is something I should have missed PM me, or use the included E-mail address.

As an endnote I will be in Bangkok from May 30th to June 30th in case of you would like to have a personal interview with me or just want to grab a cup of coffee.

So, if you are an owner of a company, work in a company who is hiring or know someone who is, please feel free to contact me.

I am looking forward to hear from you.

Kind regards,

Bjørn Kristensen
