Apart from getting a degree, what are my options/where should I start looking for employment?

The search function has offered me nothing with regards to countries that non-degree holders are eligible to work!!!

Any ideas would be appreciated!!!!!

Cheers, Danny

Most European countries don't officially require a degree, though obviously most newbies on the job market do have one.

Help us... what is your nationality and age? Where are you the least bit interested in going?

I think OP is Australian and 24 years old.

OP, from your previous thread:

You got a lot of very good advice, with possible countries listed.

Ok, limit 'Europe' to Central and possibly some of Eastern, if the OP is not British.

Aussie. 24. No degree. Think working holiday visa to get your feet wet, but in the long run, finish a bachelor's degree at the minimum.

You can find work in SE Asia (close to home), Indonesia (as another poster has said), China (PRC), and Latin America all offer jobs for native speakers without a degree. Try checking the forums for each country/region for more info.

Note: If you want to advance as a teacher you will really need a degree at some point.
