qwertyuiop Posted August 5, 2004 Share Posted August 5, 2004 I understood retail sales to be a prohibited occupation for farangs under Thai labour laws Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aqua4 Posted August 6, 2004 Share Posted August 6, 2004 Requirements: - College graduate - previous sales experience of 2 yrs or more - native english speaker I think it is an advert for a foreigner. You must have at least college to get a work permit in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

otherstuff1957 Posted August 7, 2004 Share Posted August 7, 2004 I really don't get this Thai obsession with College Degrees. Is it a class thing? Are they barring kids from poorer families from decent jobs? The whole concept of needing a degree to sell shoes is ludicrous!. I was in sales for ten years and despite having a degree from one of the top Universities in the US (Stanford), I was only an average earner. My best friend was a high school dropout who usually earned twice the commission that I did! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aqua4 Posted August 7, 2004 Share Posted August 7, 2004 I agree it is odd. Thai's have obsessions with degrees for odd things. Even falangs who open stores and businesses here do the same. Browse through the forum and see for yourself. You need a degree to be an estate agent and a used car salesman. Isuzu as an example was looking for sales personel to sell new cars off a show room floor, but the applicants had to have a degree. Paper in Thailand is more important that making money in itself. Just because you have a degree in Marine Biology does not mean you can sell cars. They dont take into account experience or ability. Smoke and mirrors.
