Mozambican citizens are being asked to apply for job opportunities in seven rich countries that are currently facing labor shortages in various areas.

An ad published today in the newspaper News indicates that Germany, Japan, the United Kingdom, the United Arab Emirates, Canada, Russia and the United States of America have around seven million job vacancies for citizens of various countries, including Mozambique.

The job vacancies are in the areas of health and transportation, construction, aviation, shipbuilding, electricity-electrotechnics, mechanics, the automotive industry, hotels, restaurants, agriculture, fishing, food manufacturing, soft drinks and restaurants.

Qualified citizens between the ages of 18 and 49 can apply. Application requirements can be requested from the Way Makers Association, and those interested in working in Dubai through Way Makers Consultoria SA.

This is a strategy to recruit manpower to make up for the shortfall in the more industrialized countries, which is why several are already reviewing and restructuring their immigration policies to make it easier to apply for work visas.
