Work and Global Prospects

Image
By
I'm almost finished with uni and so I've been looking into job prospects. It's not very vibrant because the job market is slow. But the recession is supposed to be global, so that means it's slow everywhere, right? Actually that just means things are slower everywhere but if you run a mile in four minutes usually, making one in 4.5 minutes doesn't make it a slow one (just slower).

So maybe global job opportunities are available, and with that idea I decided to check where I could work without the need for a visa and where there's agreements between countries to make getting a visa easier. And these are the results.

Under CARICOM Single Market and Economy (CSME):

 Trinidad passport means I can work in -


  • Antigua and Barbuda
  • Belize
  • Barbados
  • Dominica
  • Guyana
  • Grenada
  • St. Lucia
  • Jamaica
  • Saint Kitts and Nevis
  • St Vincent and the Grenadines
  • Suriname
-Trinidad and Tobago since I'm a citizen.
- Canada since I'm a citizen

- USA has easier access because of NAFTA, so with a job offer there's 3 years available with TN1 status for Canadian Nationals.

NAFTA agreement might work for a job in Mexico as well, but I'm not sure.

Under Canada Young Professional 

If between ages 18-35 there's a bilateral agreement to allow young professionals to work for one year in certain countries.

  • Austria
  • Chile
  • Czech Republic
  • Costa Rica
  • Croatia
  • France
  • Germany
  • Estonia
  • Greece
  • Latvia
  • Mexico
  • Netherlands
  • Lithuania
  • Poland
  • Slovakia
  • Spain
  • Slovenia
  • Sweden 
  • Switzerland
  • Taiwan
  • Ukraine

Under PIO

As a Person of Indian Origin, (up to four generations removed ie great grandparents or more recent level of ancestry of Indian origin) this allows for a PIO card which means on possession of this card no separate visa is required for taking up employment (or studies). So I can work in India too, with this.

Oscar Predictions-Film Awards (i)

By
Best Director Most likely winner :     Steven Spielberg   for Lincoln. Leaving out Ben Affleck, Kathryn Bigelow and Quentin Tarantino pretty much made this Spielberg's to lose. And doesn't reflect too well on the Academy either. Backup Pick :    David O. Russell for  Silver Linings Playbook. The production company of Weinstein have been campaigning hard for this and it's a good film with the acting performances set up well. The thing about best director is it's the easiest award to give to someone the academy likes because it's ambiguous and the academy doesn't really love Russell. Most deserving :      Michel Haneke for  Amour. Haneke has the most carefully crafted film here. All in all it is definitely his film in every scene. His presence is all around the film and it is an excellent film. If they give it for the greatest impact a director has on the film, this is it. Best Adapted Screenplay Most li...

10 (20th century) novels that you can summarize the plot of in two lines. and completely miss what makes it good.

By
10. Remembrance of Things Past ( À la recherche du temps perdu ) - Marcel Proust - 1913–1927 Summary: A man remembers large parts of his past, involuntarily. All because of an incident where he dips a madeleine into tea. In a book where basically nothing happens except the very ordinary life of the narrator, the story still manages to capture one's attention. Also the author manages to make every experience, thought and emotion seem as something that everyone has either experienced or can relate to. Written with almost every word in the vocabulary, it is condensation of innumerable literary, structural, stylistic, and thematic possibilities. 9.Ulysses - James Joyce - 1922 Summary : The entire book follows a day in the life of Leopold Bloom on 16th June 1904 through the streets of Dublin. A deceptively simple plot but while reading the plot itself becomes secondary or even forgotten. Most of what makes this book a classic are the hundreds of references and allusions to other works...

a list about plays (post 1950)

By
The general perception is good plays stopped being written. That all the plays being performed which remain popular are classics and there is no place for the playwright in the current dramatic world. The role of the playwright has been diminished but good plays have not become extinct in the 20th and 21st century.This list will attempt to reflect that by giving a selection of excellent plays written (and performed) after 1950. 20. Prelude to a Kiss- Craig Lucas. Premiered in California in 1988. Quick Description: Thought to be a metaphor for AIDS. A story about the switching of bodies between a new bride and an old man and how the husband must find the old man while keeping his love alive. Something of a Sci-fi style and one of the most original works in recent times. 19. Long Day's Journey Into Night - Eugene O'Neill.premiered in Stockholm at the Royal Dramatic theatre in 1956. quick summary: A play about addiction and how it affects everyone around the addict.The characters ...
