For this assignment I knew that I would like to look at graphic design employment opportunities France because it’s a country I would like to live in and I felt that my knowledge of the language would help me to find a job and assimilate. Initially I looked at jobs in multiple French speaking countries, but ultimately I decided to look mostly in France because there were the most opportunities there, and my previous experience there would help me understand the culture better. I looked at both internships and full time jobs across France, and found that many of the internships were paid, but that the full time jobs would be much more realistic to accommodate the cost of living.
Here are some of the listings I found:
