In my personal experience, not a big demand. You will probably need to research and contact individual companies. You might find an opening somewhere - but there is a ton of competition from people who are bilingual, with command of both the native language, and English. |

If you mean you want a high editorial position, it's probably not likely; those are usually jobs that don't turn over. Most larger Eastern European cities have at least one English language newspaper, but, as j1mj1m said, the competition is fierce. You could do freelance writing, but it won't net you enough to live on.
www.thebigproject.co.uk - go to the News section, then scroll down to the English language newspapers section. That will give you editorial contacts. |
