ABOUT THE LIVING LIFE IN COSTA RICA BLOG

I (Vicki Skinner - aka "THE Sarong Goddess") created this blog in 2007 to share DETAILED Finds•Lists•Info•Events•Experiences to help bring more EASE to people living in, visiting or thinking of moving to Costa Rica since DETAILS are NOT easy to find!
I’m NOT an expert (an "expert" 2 ME knows 101%-NOT me). I believe in sharin info•helping where I can! And with over 2,200 entries, so some things might be out of date, so if you find old info PLEASE help each other by getting the updated info & sharing it with me to revise. At least you have some basic info to get you started.
VOLUNTEER TO HELP:
Better yet - do you have extra time on your hands & looking for a volunteer project? Since this blog is a labor of love & RARELY does anyone share a donation (even though MANY have said how much it's helped them), I could REALLY use help updating info. Spanish speakers ESPECIALLY welcome since my VicLish can be somewhat limited at times!!

How•Where can I find a JOB•EMPLOYEMENT in Costa Rica? POSITIONS•JOBS AVAILABLE around Costa Rica

Looking for a job•work while you are living in Costa Rica?
First thing to note is CAN YOU work LEGALLY in Costa Rica (see the first paragraph below).
If not, you might want to seek a job online where you "TeleCommute" or work "Remotely" (next section down).

After that, I am sharing various jobs•positions I hear are available around Costa Rica.

If this helps you in any way, please consider making a DONATION to this blog to keep this information coming as any job listed does so for FREE.  Help keep this blog going (and me inspired to keep seeking this type of information for you)


DISCLAIMER
CAN I LEGALLY WORK IN COSTA RICA?
Just sharing information here and am not responsible for the content or anything.
It IS ILLEGAL to work in Costa Rica UNLESS you have Permanent Residency or Citizenship or have a Working Visa which is NOT easy to obtain unless you're doing something unique and not taking a job away from a Tico.  Note that the fine for employers hiring "illegals" is has increased this past year.  Article 177 of the legislation says that that fine is between 2-12 wage base salaries of a category 1 clerk - between 443,896-colones/$887.80 and 2,663,376-c/$5,326.75 (just stating this to cover MY tush)

With that said, you might want to see a job where you work "Remotely" • ONLINE • TELECOMMUTE!

WHERE MIGHT I FIND A JOB REMOTELY • ON THE COMPUTER•ONLINE • TELECOMMUTE OR 
PHYSICALLY IN COSTA RICA
Most of these either you pay to join. Some the employer pays.  I know NOTHING about these - just sharin' information.
(MOST people I know seeking remote•online jobs use FlexJobs.  IF I was seeking, THIS is where I'd invest my  $14.95/month. $29.95/3 months.  $49.95/year [NOTE you can often get a discount on the membership by googling - FlexJobs Membership Discount)
