What kind of job you're looking for? Unless you have an outstanding work experience and looking for a certain job, things are difficult here. Unemployment rate are high.

I've been unemployed for 5 months now and I have an MBA. Actually, I'm going to Nashville this week for a job interview.

So, it all depends on what are you looking for. Maybe you have better luck than many people here.

Best of luck!!!!

Hi, I hate to be a little off topic but I need some quick help with spanish please please...

I sold something on eBay to someone in Madrid. He was happy with the sale and wrote to me "volveria a comprarle".

I tried to look this up without too much luck, but I'm pretty sure he was saying something like "I will be back to shop again with you".

Is that correct? Any other info about this spanish phrase that may be of interest would be appreciated.

Thanks for the help, compadres!!

What for? what kind of job to you want to get in PR? A lot of "traditional" jobs (medical, corporate, etc) pay less than you would if you stayed in US.
