It's not so difficult to find work in Bologna. Nevertheless, while unemployment rates are lower in Bologna than in other parts of Italy, college graduates often look for months before finding a job. High-paying jobs, both for Italians and foreigners, are scarce. However, as a English speaker or foreign language speaker, you will probably be able to find lavoretti (odd jobs) to support yourself in a relatively short amount of time.

Besides the obvious financial benefits, working is an excellent way to integrate more fully into life in Bologna. It gives you a chance to really get to know the Bolognese and to learn more about Italian life. In this section we will give you all the information you need to introduce yourself in the world of work.
