Vanuatu
Vanuatu, like Palau and other tropical countries I’ve written about in the past, is a beautiful country with a not so beautiful number of job opportunities. With over 80% of the population engaged in agriculture of some sort, this is not the place to look if you are in search of a high paying job. Nevertheless, if you are dead set on living and working in Vanuatu (and taking advantage of their 2 hour lunch breaks!), check out the useful resources below to get your job search kicked off.
Also, be sure to double check on my Vanuatu visa page for the latest visa information.
Below is a selection of resources for searching for employment opportunities as a foreigner in Vanuatu.
